Grade 1/2 Wild Symphony!

 Wild Symphony

Our Wild Symphony work is complete!  

I have enjoyed watching how engaged the Grade 1/2 students have been as we have explored this book's characters, instruments and the Musical learning that has happened along the way.

Wild Symphony books have been sent home as the students are anxious to share them with you.

Rondo Alla Turca by Mozart - Grade 3/4

 Rondo Alla Turca - Fun With Composers

The grade 3/4 classes have been listening, singing and dramatizing  with Rondo Alla Turca by Mozart.

We have been using the Fun With Composers program.  The creater of this program (Deborah Ziolkoski) writes fictional stories to accompany Classical pieces of Music.  The story for Rondo Alla Turca is called The Mystery of King Lou.

After listening to the Music and the story, the students dramatize the story through movement, dance and singing.

Below is the link for Rondo Alla Turca if your child would like to show you our work from the classroom.
