Natan and Abigail are enjoying a flute solo.
This week we explored a variety of musical styles.
An activity we had in the classroom was a "listen and paint" easel.
Each day as we listened to a different type of music, the children were invited to paint what they heard.
Amelia is painting the beat to some big band jazz.
Sroli is painting the blues.
Sroli: The pink is when I heard the guitar.
We made some guitars and kazoos.
Natan: (referring to kazoo) When you cover the hole the noise is louder.
Sroli: When I blow very hard it makes a laughing sound.
Amelia: Nora has the nap time blues, she never wants to go to sleep, she never wants take her nap.
Eliana: My sister Amelia has the sick time blues, she wanted to go to the hammock but she was too sick. She was sad.
Morah Stephanie: Music can make you feel many different things.
Listen to this music and show me how you are feeling.
Anton: It makes me happy!
Abigail: It make me happy too!
Sroli: It made me laugh.
Music can make us feel happy, sad, spooky and silly.
