This week in music classes, students in grade 4-6 are studying "Trepak" or "The Russian Dance" from Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker Suite." We will be learning a rhythm game using cups as an accompaniment to this piece of music. See below:
Students in grades 2 and 3 will be studying "The Nutcracker" by listening to various selections from the suite, and watching a movie that helps us to understand this classic story.
Students in grade 1 are practicing their tah and ti-ti rhythms with a gingerbread man rhythm activity.
Students in kindergarten are working on pre-rhythm activities using winter and Christmas words. We are also creating melodies with these rhythms and words using colour-coded tone bars.
