K, Grade 1 and 2 students continue to explore the rhythms and sounds of nature through music. Using Spring as the inspiration, students experimented with creating soundscapes on barred instruments.
Grade 3 and 4 students started their first lessons on the recorder. Apart from learning about how to produce a quality tone on the instrument, students learned their first "BAG" songs, i.e. songs based on the notes "B", "A" and "G". They also learned about the "recorder consort".
Grade 5 students took a short break from the study of "improvisation" and started a new interdisciplinary project which allows them to examine elements in arts and elements in music. We looked at some of the basic elements in arts ---- lines, colours, texture, etc. ---- and draw comparison between the art concepts and that of music.
