Portland Estates Elementary 3-6 Wk. 3

Level 1

We the first part of class drilling the notes on the staffs with the "Key Quest" games. Starting with the treble clef lines: "Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge" and then learning the spaces "F-A-C-E" We then went on to the bass clef lines "Good Boys Deserve Fudge Always" and the spaces:"All Cows Eat Grass" These phrases will come in handy at all times when we are learning new songs. We also played "Key quest" spelling words with the notes on the keyboard for a few short minutes. You did lessons in "Theory Thinker": The lines and spaces about middle C as well as reviewed the F or bass clef.
SONGS
Way to go on your first songs!!
  • Old Grey Goose
  • Mary Had a Little Lamb
Level 2
Today was an important class. We reviewed our old songs from level 1 without any fingering!!! Now that we are in Level 2 we need to focus on reading the notes.

Maple Tree Montessori Wk 4

Great playing today.

In Lesson 7 with Mr. Bach we are still learning about holding notes. Some of us made it to the practice room with Miss. Melody as well!

We were able to play our 2 new games as well near the end of class. After this, you spent some time in the improv room. During rhythm time on the floor we did our clap backs. Here are some which you can practice at home. "1-2-3 + 4" "1+2-3-4" or " I - like- eat-ing snow-flakes" I am sure you can make up much more combinations on your own.

We are making great progress!
See you next week.
