Young Child Weeek 18

What a fun packed lesson we had this week!

We have been working on Italian terms and dynamics. Have a look at the yellow and green cards in your child's Games' Bag and see if you can order them correctly.

PP = pianissimo (or very quiet in English)
P = piano (quiet or soft)
F = forte (loud)
FF = fortissimo (very loud); certainly the favourtie!!!

We will add some others next week.

Try to get out your child's music bag a couple of times this week. It really helps to get them in the habit of doing some music at home as this will prepare them for regular practise if they decide to go on to individual instrumental lessons later on.

This week use your note chips to copy the melody card on to your staff chart. (Please ask me next weel for more chips if you need them!) Sing the melody and play it on the glockenspiel, making sure you use both hands.

There is a new melody to look at on your card! Can you guess what it is? You will need to practise this one as we will be playing it in class next week.

Why not have a look at the Classics for Kids website this week, there are some good podcasts to download!
