Elementary Music & Spanish for the Week of 3/18/13

Here’s what we are working on this week:

Pre-K:  In Music we will be singing and playing musical instruments to some of the songs we’ve learned so far this year, as well as learning a new song called “Hello, My Name is Joe” that involves not only singing, but working on coordination.  We will not have Spanish this week due to the Play Dress Rehearsal on Friday morning.

Kindergarten:  In Music,  we will continue working on moving our bodies to a specific rhythm.  Last week, we learned basic dance steps, and the students had so much fun, they begged to perform the dance again this week!  We will not have Spanish this week due to the Play Dress Rehearsal on Friday morning.

1st Grade:  In Spanish this week, we will begin learning vocabulary for different foods, in preparation for playing Bingo to practice this vocabulary next week.  In Music, we continue to use portions of the movie “The Sound of Music” to listen and interpret the style and mood of music through performance.

2nd Grade:  In Spanish this week, we will begin learning vocabulary for different foods, in preparation for playing Bingo to practice this vocabulary next week.  In Music, we continue to use portions of the movie “The Sound of Music” to listen and interpret the style and mood of music through performance.

3rd Grade:  Third graders will not have Music class this week due to their field trip on Monday.  In Spanish, we will continue working on verb infinitive forms.

4th Grade:  In Music this week, we will discuss and hear examples of phrase, contrast, binary (AB form), ternary (ABA form), and rondo.  In Spanish we are discussing the days of the week, months of the year, and telling the date, as well as the country of Honduras.
