I created this page to share music lessons with parents and students. The students work hard and enjoy their time learning songs, dances, and playing instruments. I hope you enjoy our "Music Room Masterpieces".

Take 5
Well, as the year winds down, I get to do some of my fun lessons in class. I enjoy this 5th grade activity that reviews time signatures in 3/4 and 4/4 time and introduces 5/4 time. We work on polyrhythms and also review rondo form and improvisation. This music is one of my favorite jazz pieces by Dave Brubeck: Take 5. Hope you enjoy our final activity for this lesson!

Hawaiian Puilli Stick Routines
Ms. Carter's class
The third grade classes concluded their "Hawaiian" unit by playing Puilli sticks this week. Each class learned two routines and enjoyed some trivia questions about our 50th state. The top video is a routine that the students performed individually. The second video is a partner routine.

Kindergarten Program
This week we had a wonderful time putting this little musical together for our friends and family. The kindergarten classes did a wonderful job. Thank you teachers for helping rehearse these songs. Our seven classes will not all fit in the multipurpose room of our school, therefore, four classes performed on Tuesday, and three classes performed on Thursday. These recordings were taken during the Thursday performance. The farmers and the stage animals (speaking parts) stay the same for both performances, while the chorus groups change from one performance to the next.
