Today in MusIQ Club!

Here’s what we covered in week 3. Parents, please watch your email for a notice regarding the Carleton County Music Festival. It’s possible to enter your child in the festival under MusIQ Club if you wish to do so. There is also the possibility of doing group entries as well.

Dominique, Kenneth, Alec, Adam, David & Kallista: Today we covered two lessons in class — lesson 38 & 39. Go into your settings in CMJ 2 to set it up in the right place.  The reason we covered two lessons is to make sure that the kids get 10 lessons in 8 weeks. The students didn’t seem to have any trouble covering both lessons and they were instructed (as usual) to complete Miss Melody at home. The main concepts that they are working on is note values, reading lines and spaces, and clapping rhythms. They need to be able to identify a note on the staff, so it’s important that they understand the music alphabet forward and backward. Please complete the following pages in the workbook if you haven’t done so already: The White Keys, Note Values, The Staff, Reading Treble Clef C, D, and E. If you have any questions, please post them below.

Sylvie & Dakota: Today we covered two lessons in class — lesson 28 & 29. Go into your settings in CMJ 2 to set it up in the right place.  The reason we covered two lessons is to make sure that the kids get 10 lessons in 8 weeks. The students didn’t seem to have any trouble covering both lessons and they were instructed (as usual) to complete Miss Melody at home. The main concepts that they are working on is holding notes, clapping rhythms, and the music alphabet forward and backwards. Their music is also hand specific, so when they see a RH or LH on the computer, they must play the note with that hand. Please complete the following pages in the workbook if you haven’t done so already: The White Keys, Note Values, The Staff, Reading Treble Clef C, D, and E. If you have any questions please feel free to post it below.
