Task Description
Singing: The Rabbit and Panda
This song teaches the technique of ‘Call and Response’ and is in the form of a conversation between two animals –a rabbit and a panda. ‘Call and Response’ is a technique whereby performers can engage in a dialogue with their listeners, thus using music to stimulate communication between people. One student will sing the panda lines, and one student will sing the rabbit lines of the song as a call and response.

2A Kingsley Chan (2)
I think I need to improve my concentration and attitude in the class. I must listen to the teacher when I perform.
2A Samuel Fok (11)
This is my first time to learn about the singing style ‘Call & Response’. I think it is interesting because it’s like a conversation with melody.
2A Kwok Wing Sze (14)
I feel good because I like the song about the rabbit and panda playing together. I have never sung in this style –one person calling and the other responding -so I like this song very much. I wish you could try it too.
2A Kacey Man (21)
I think I did very well, but I would like to improve the actions that I did too fast. I like the part when the animals respond to each other. I hope you like this song too!
Teacher's Comment
They tried to present the ‘Call and Response’ song like a conversation, and they sang the song with correct pitch and rhythm. Moreover, they added some actions to make the song more interesting. For a better performance, they could face audience more when they perform.
