Week of 1/20

Hello 4th graders!  

This week, we:

• Learned the G scale in a new octave:  Violins and Basses starting the G scale on their E string!  

• Reviewed Tallis Canon (if time, watched video from last week's post) and Variations on a Familiar Song from page 35

• Learned the C scale in a new octave: Violas and cellos starting their C scale on their C string!

• Looked at p. 36 (notes on the C string for Cello/viola) & 38 (notes on the E string for violin/bass)

• Worked on our String Jamboree pieces!

Your assignment this week is to really master pages 36 & 38 (and complete the writing exercises on them), and work hard on your orchestra pieces (Classic Sinfonia to 41 and Golden Grove to 49).  See the practice schedule below.
