Mid March Update

Kindergarten is marching and dancing to some Irish dances in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.
We are learning song forms (in our Connaughtman's Rambles song's case, it is AABBAA) and choreographing appropriately for each section.

Grade 1/2 is playing rhythmic patterns using alternating hands on the xylophones, and they are also practicing accurate note-playing. We also listened to some soundtrack music to decide what kind of movie we see playing in our head when we listen to this music.

Grade 3/4s are working on perfecting their songs. Students can practice through youtube videos:
It's Raining
Old MacDonald Had a Farm
O When the Saints Go Marching

Grade 5/6s are still in the midst of Genre Presentations using Google Slides and learning new songs.
Students can find links to practice videos here:
Jolly Old St. Nicholas
This Little Light of Mine
