SEPTEMBER 2018 PAGE 5 Music Time! We have been having a wonderful time in our music classes this semester! The littles (Pre-K to 2nd grade) have enjoyed singing traditional melodies like “The Farmer in the Dell,” “Bingo”, and “Down by the Riverside as well as clapping and using plastic cups as percussion instruments. 3rd through 5th grade have enjoyed learning to sing rounds to the tunes of “Alleluia”, “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”, “There Was an Old Fellow”, and “All Praise to Thee.” Rounds are challenging to the student because they force the singers to listen closely to their group while “tuning out” those singing different parts in the other group. A fun ear and brain workout indeed!
