Great class today! We started on the carpet to check worksheets, do some sight singing with the new notes for the 2As in the LH, Bass Clef C B A, and did a new rhythm/history/movement/listening activity I’m trying out based on Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, Mov. 2. It went really well, great participation and it was [...]

It went really well, great participation and it was neat to see the kids applying what we have been practicing all year with the rhythm cards. From there we [...]

I was so happy to see you all come to the library before the bell even rang today. Nice work – it set us up for a very productive session. We started with our CMJ Lessons, and then went to the carpet for a new rhythm/history/movement/listening activity I’m trying out based on Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, [...]

Today we started off the class with a fun rhythm/listening/history activity using our ability to read rhythms that use eighth notes, quarter notes, and quarter rests, and Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, movement 2. Nice job, we had great participation. After our lessons at the pianos we did some improvising again at the keyboards, and some playbacks, [...]

We had a very good class today! I’m so proud of my 2As and how well they are learning to read songs with C D E on the Treble Staff. We started out our class together on the carpet where we learned about rhythms in triplets (eighth notes in groups of 3 instead of in [...]

We have been having a lot of fun at Mapleview Heights the last few weeks. As some of you know I write the curriculum and lesson plans for all the MusIQ Clubs, and I have been looking at ways to incorporate more activities into our program away from the keyboards that encourage whole-body participation in [...]

Another great class with this fun bunch of students! Lots of energy in this class means we keep things moving and get a lot done each week! I’m also happy to see so many workbooks coming back with completed worksheets! Don’t forget the song sheets at the back, too, you can start playing those as [...]

We had a very productive day at Goodfellow this morning! We tried out our new plan of doing our lesson first and then eating, and it worked quite well, although it would have been even better if everyone had remembered to come right to the library just before the bell – although I think the [...]

We had another good, if slightly rowdy, class this week. All my new students did a great job today building on what they learned last week! Level 1 These are all my new students. We will be using the software program called Children’s Music Journey 2. We were sad to miss Grace this week, and [...]

Hello MusIQ Club parents, thank you for visiting our blog! As you may have heard, there was a bit of confusion today, as we were unaware of the change to the nutrition break schedule. All but 3 of our students went outside at the bell, and once they are outside I can’t get them until [...]

It is hard to believe that we are more than 1/2 way through our fall term! Next week we will start preparing for our end-of-term open house class, where parents are invited to see what we have been learning and hear a few performances! The Level 1s completed Lesson 30 today, where they reviewed whole [...]
