Hello 5th graders!
We've been studying minor keys!
Here's what we're doing:
Learning about "relative" major and minor keys.
Playing some Major and minor scales.
Watching the video below to see an example of a familiar Major song, changed to minor! Weird, huh?
Analyzing some short melodies to determine their key, then writing our own at home!
Working on two fun minor tunes, "Believer" and "Wellerman." Can you play both of these?
Starting our work on flats, including the key of D minor AND watching a very intense video of "Frere Jacques" turned minor by the famous composer Gustav Mahler (see below)
Your assignment is:
#125-128 in the book
Really mastering Air Warriors and Wayland Overture - String Jamboree is right around the corner!
