BRRR! Two snow days down and only a couple weeks to go until our 1st grade program on Tuesday, February 12th. The kids have been working hard to get things ready with speaking parts, instruments, songs and movement. Ask your 1st grader what their job is for our show.
Second grade is busy learning about percussion instruments, George Frideric Handel, beats in sets of 3 and much more. Supper quiz question for your 2nd grader tonight: What is an ostinato? A repeated pattern in music
Kindergarten is busy singing and moving. A lot of my focus until this point of the year is getting them singing as much as possible and moving as directed, specifically to mirror me. This preparation can help transition young children who may be used to doing "their own thing" to begin our program work when they will be required to move as a whole group with designated movements. This work will soon begin although the show will remain a secret for a little while longer, stay tuned. :)
Be on the lookout for information about our annual Music Booster Potato Feed in March. It's a great time for families with good food and entertainment of the best kind, our own kids.
