Joseph Giles Elementary, P-2 (Wednesday, Oct. 22, Week 4)

Everyone was present this week! We all worked very hard.     We started by going straight to our keyboards and laptops. We worked on circle notes and holding notes. You saw Mr. Bach and Miss Melody, playing high notes, low notes, short notes, and long notes. They helped you with more counting, playing word [...]

Gertrude Parker Elementary, P-2 (Tuesday, Oct. 21, Week 4)

Everyone had something to do this week before we got started! It’s a great idea to bring books or homework to keep busy while I’m setting up.    We started by saying the Musical Alphabet forwards and backwards – you’re all very quick! We talked a little bit about Mr. Bach, with seasoned students coaching [...]

St. Joseph’s Alexander McKay, P-2 (Tuesday, Oct. 21, Week 3)

Everyone did very well this week! We still have to be a little quicker getting from class to the library, but everyone settled down and worked hard.

Oxford Elementary, P-2 (Monday, Oct. 20th, Week 3)

It was very nice to see all of you today! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving last Monday.   This week, we started off with some ear training. I sang two notes, and you told me if the second note was higher or lower than the first note. Then, we clapped some spoken word [...]

Waverley Memorial Elementary, P-2 (Thursday, Oct. 16, Week 3)

Everyone did very well today! We worked hard and learned lots of new things.   To begin, we remembered our word rhythms from last week – “I like pup-py dogs” and “I like ri-ding sheep”.

St. Joseph’s Alexander MacKay, P-2 (Tuesday, Oct. 14, Week 2)

This was the first day after a long weekend, and it seems that everyone had some difficulty settling down. Even though it’s lunch hour, we want to make the most of our time together. We have a meeting place outside the office, so everyone needs to hurry from class to the office with all coats [...]

Waverley Memorial Elementary, P-2 (Week 2, October 9th)

We had a great class today! Everyone focused well and worked hard. Each student remembered where to find high bird notes, low whale notes, and Middle C on the keyboard! We said the Musical Alphabet (forwards and backwards!), and used our high/low, loud/soft voices to remember the difference between those kinds of notes. Remember, high [...]
