Partner practice on barred instruments helps our musicians build confidence, strengthen their parts, and work together to create an even better ensemble when we come back together to play! 🎶
What a fun-filled Halloween day! 🎃👻 From our first GymSic of the year to the costume parade and classroom parties, we packed in so much Halloween fun! 🧡
🎶 4th graders have been making lots of music on our barred instruments lately! They’ve been building their improvisation skills and strengthening their treble clef reading as they explore, create, and perform! 🎵
A peek at Mrs. Parks’ class having fun with Stirring My Brew! 🧙♀️🎃🎵 Want to see this activity in action? Check out my previous post featuring Miss Warak’s class performing it! 🥄🪄
🎃🧙♀️ 1st graders have been having a SPOOKTACULAR time with festive Halloween music activities! 👻 In “Stirring My Brew,” we did some vocal exploration and practiced dynamics while bringing the magic to life with our very own cauldron (hand drum) and spoon (rhythm stick)! 🥁🥄 🎶
Another amazing win by the Millard South Patriots and another amazing performance by the Patriots Pride Marching Band! 🏈 🎵 @MSHSactivities @Bands_MSHS
STEM Day! Kindergarten got to visit @thedinobus93 with Mr. Pontiero AKA Dinosaur Ranger Anthony yesterday! 🦖 🚌
🥁 Making music on the barred instruments in 3rd grade! Our musicians were extra excited to bring out the BIG bass xylophones! 🎶💙
🔥 Practicing form and dynamics with “Jeremiah Blow the Fire”! Second graders also created their own B section filled with crackling campfire sounds around a BOOMWHACKER fire! 🎶🔥
🕷️🎶 1st graders listened to two different versions of “The Itsy Bitsy Spider” and used adjectives to describe how the music sounded! They also explored the different moods of the music through movement! 🎵
These two amazing 1st graders take piano lessons and treated us to some performances in music class the other day! 🎹🎶 We loved getting to hear them share their talents with us. Way to go, girls! 💕
Indoor purposeful play with my kindergarten lunch bunch!🌧️ With all the rainy weather we had, we learned how to share, use our imaginations, build, & get creative with indoor toys when we couldn’t go out for recess after lunch! So much fun learning and playing together! 🧱🎨✨
