Notes from the Music Room

For the next few weeks, we will continue developing 4 different dance steps in our Samba-style dance. Our goal is to be able to sing and dance at the same time. Right now, we are still at the "learn the dance step" stage. Much improvement this week. Ask your children to show you some of the steps that we are learning.
We are also reviewing music theory including notes on the staff and musical notation. Their homework this week is to be able to play "Hot Cross Buns" on the recorder with a steady beat and pleasant tone. They can also practice ahead in their recorder book.
