Today in MusIQ Club!

Hello Everybody!

We had a great lesson on Monday, although we missed Jenna. Hope she feels better soon!

Level 1A, Lesson 7 - Ava

Great work today, Ava!

• This week’s lesson was all about more holding note practice with Mr Bach.
• You played through lots of songs with Mr Bach and Miss Melody which helped you to get really good at reading  circle notes and playing the holding notes for the right length of time!
• You went to the Games Room where you played the Train Game, and the Princess Story!
• You spent some time in the Improvisation Room making up your own music.

Home Assignments for the Week

• Practice saying the musical alphabet everyday. How fast can you say it backwards? G F E D C B A!
• Print out this 5 line staff, and have a go at composing your own songs using high and low circle notes, middle C’s and holding notes!

Level 2A, Lesson 33 and 34 - Anik and Devin

Well done, both of you. You are following the notes on the Grand Staff better each week!

• Mr Mozart reminded you how to write Middle C, D and E on the treble staff.
• You played through some songs using these new treble clef notes.
• You saw that the notes were moving in a stepping motion on the treble staff; a line note, followed by the very next space note.
• You practiced with Miss Melody until you were really happy with using your ant tunnels to play these stepping notes in the right hand. Well done!
• You had time in the Games Room and Improvisation Room to relax!

Home Assignments for the Week

• If you haven’t yet done this, print out this worksheet and try to match up all the parts on the Grand Staff!
• Print out this wordsearch, all about Mr Mozart!
• Keep improvising and having fun on the piano at home!

Level 2C, Lesson 53 - Erin

Well done Erin! Another excellent lesson today!

• You worked with Mr Handel and played through some new songs written on the Grand Staff.
• You practised finding Bass Clef F with your left hand, and then you learnt all about Treble clef G! You play this note with the pinkie finger of your right hand!
• You were really good at recognising steps and skips when reading the notes for your new songs today. Great concentration.
• You played some more rhythms in time with the woodpecker!
• You had time to visit the Games Room and Improvisation Room to finish off

Home Assignments for the Week

• If you haven’t managed to do this yet, have a go at this activity sheet and try to name the Grand Staff notes!
• Print out this tune ‘Old Grey Goose’ and continue to practise it at home this week. Can you please bring it with you to class next Monday.

Bye for now!
