This week in class our focus was on Steady beat( constant repitious sound) and rhythmic beats( long, short and silent sounds) To help us learn the concept of rythmic beat we played our name rhyme on a drum with a partner. then we went around the circle and played a rythm while our partner said thier rhyme and vice versa.Also we began to playour recoders. we will be having recoder time every friday. today we learned B,A G and how to play the song hot cross buns.
In class when we learn a new song for either singing or playing our teacher will demonstrate the song to the class. this is great because it gives everyone a sense of what the song will sound like and what we will be doing during the song. Like this week will our focus on steady beat and rhythmic beats our teacher singing us a verse while keeping the beat on her body and then she choose a student to come up with a different pattern while we sing.
It is important to learn these basic concepts in music because they will open the door to other forms of music and its elements. it also helps to show a song both auditory and visually to help all styles of learners!
Music is important for children at this age because it can help them to express their emotions and learn concepts in different subject matter( math or reading). also children can see how different instrument of music like voice, body percussion and musical instruments.
