April 21, 2020 Music

Good morning! Check out the couple of fun lessons below! I hope you have a great Tuesday!

Preschool Story Read aloud with sticks or wooden spoons. Something to tap together and then hit on the floor. I love this story for a cold rainy day in April. This story is about getting caught in a rainstorm. You will need two tapping sticks. When the story says, “Tap, Tap” you will tap them together and when it says “Boom” you hit the floor (this depends on how many times it says ‘Boom.’ (Sometimes it only says it once, sometimes twice!) Hope you have fun!

K-5 Students who have me on Tuesdays!

For this week we are going to jump into movie music! The first week of May I always talk about one of the greats, John Williams as he wrote music for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter, and much more! I don’t know about you, but I love to watch movies with my kids and I have gotten to enjoy quite a few since our time away. We watched the new movie “Onward,” “Frozen 2” (OF COURSE!), “Brave”, even some great TV shows like “Fancy Nancy,” “Daniel Tiger,” and “Sofia the First.”

I know all little kid shows of course, but in each of them they all have great little tunes of MUSIC!

ASSIGNMENT –>I would like ALL of you to try. Have someone record you doing some little ordinary day thing like taking a walk, riding a bike, playing in the backyard, doing chores, or something that you really like to do! and have them record you 30 secs at the most and add your favorite song that you think would go best with your movie.

Below you will find my favorite song and your Princess singing and loving teacher singing one of her favorites since she was a little girl! This assignment can be due to me anytime this week! I will put up short exercises for the rest of the week, but this will be the MAIN ASSIGNMENT! (All grades K-5!)
