The Day the Crayons Quit
Here are some pictures from the first grader’s performance of “The Day the Crayons Quit.” They did awesome and sang their little hearts out!
Simple Songs
I’ve started using the John Feierabend curriculum more this year and we’ve been working on echoing and using our head voices. I added the puppets for some extra fun and also some Arioso practice where we distinguish between speaking and singing.

Movement Time!
These guys love when we move around! We worked on levels, high-medium-low, and I had students choose a level to pose on when the music stopped. We also picked different ways to move like jump, skip, skate, hop, etc.

Let’s Write Some Music!
This week students are working with quarter notes, quarter rests and eighth notes to compose music. Students are using Fruit-Loops to notate rhythms they’ve created onto their worksheet. Students then draw standard notation into their boxes and get to eat a fun treat!
