Hi fourth graders!
This week for music you have a fun bingo board to complete. See how many different ways you can be musical. Every time you complete an activity cross it out until you get 4 in a row! Have fun!
Have fun!

Hello 4th graders! Last week, you got to watch the movie "STOMP" and see people making music using some random, everyday objects! Pretty neat! This week, we're continuing on with our bucket drumming! Grab your bucket, sticks, and let's have some fun!
#1 Warm Up
CLICK HERE for an introduction to bucket drumming
#2 "Tango" Level 1
CLICK HERE to learn a new song on your bucket drum called "Tango." This song has a rhythm that may be new to you. You will see a dotted quarter note followed by one single eighth note (just the "de" part of the du-de). The first note is held half a beat longer than regular "du". You will hear what it sounds like it in the song!
#3 "Eyes of Glory" Level 2
CLICK HERE to play the Level 2 song. This piece has a "syncopated" rhythm. That means that sometimes the notes begin in between the beats. You would count each measure like this:
"de du de du du"
Think "short long short long long"
B indicates playing with BOTH sticks. Can you play on the correct part of your bucket? Look to the left to see whether its played on the rim, top, side, or clicked.
Hi 4th graders,
Last week, you got to play some new rhythms and patterns using your “bucket” drums. Did you know that there is a musical group called STOMP that uses everyday objects to make music? Check out this video of them performing a variety of songs using all kinds of household objects, and other things that are not normally considered instruments. As you watch, think about what other objects from your home you could use to make music!
Have fun!

Hello 4th graders! I hope you had a nice long weekend! This week, you will be exploring different rhythmic patterns using everyday objects that you have at home. Let’s start with a rhythmic warm-up. Find two objects at home that you can use like rhythm sticks to tap some patterns (two pencils, two kitchen spoons, anything!) Just like when using rhythm sticks at school, be sure to tap lightly so that the objects do not break!

One of my favorite foods ever is PIZZA! What's your favorite food? This week you are going to complete a composing project using pizza topping rhythms. The last few weeks we learned about famous composers and now you get to compose your own music!
Watch the video Ms. Pohl, Happy Hollow's music teacher, made for an example
Look at the google doc for directions
Create and perform your rhythm and send it to me: Kimberley_Davis@wayland.k12.ma.us
Have fun!
