John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt
Grade 1 and 2 have been using the song 'John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt' as a way to listen for and respond to changes in dynamics (volume) in Music. We started by singing the song loud (forte)_and gradually got quieter as we sang each verse. Students indicated the correct dynamics of each verse of the song. Their favourite part was when they got to sing very loud (fortissimo) when they got to the 'tra la la la la la la' part!
