Specialist MCHA Music October!

Last month, we had lots of fun learning the following…

By using percussion instruments like shakers, tambourine etc., as well as things like tapping, clapping and marching, to keep a steady pace while singing. We also listened to marching music by Georges Bizet and marched along with the music.

-How to differentiate a steady beat from a non-steady beat
By making a steady beat followed by a non-steady one and learning which one was the steady
Beat.

-What a Quarter note is
By introducing the quarter note and how many beats are in a quarter note.

-How to recognize a quarter note in a music sheet
