4th Grade

As we begin the school year, we review rhythmic values. This class is using the song "Rocky Mountain" to practice subdivisions of whole, half, quarter and eighth notes. One student said, "there's so much MATH in MUSIC!" 4th graders will also be reviewing basic technique for playing xylophones and learning some arrangements for "Canoe Song" and "Autumn is the Time" which allow us to work on ensemble skills and singing in a round.
