Hammonds Plains Elementary School Wed. Nov. 28 8.00-9.00am

Today was a half-lesson.
Sorry for the mix-up everyone. As we discussed, we'll have the super-fun lesson I had planned for us next week :)

Here's what we did in class:

• Naming notes on the Grand-Staff using flashcards. (Remember the Space Note Rhymes: F-A-C-E and All-Cows-Eat-Grass. Also, memorize where all the 'C' notes are on the staff. This will help you to count up or down by line and space.)
• 4-Beat Rhythms. Quarter notes, Half notes, Whole notes and Eighth notes. (Practice making up your own combinations of note values. If you have a music friend, you can do clapping exercises together.)
• Try to perfect Old Grey Goose at home this week. You can print off a copy of the music using the following link: http://www.musiqclub.com/blog/resources/Lesson3_Old_Grey_Goose.pdf
• And try this Note-Naming Game at home, so that when we do the contest next week in class, your team will have a better chance of winning! http://www.musictheory.net/trainers/html/id82_en.html

You're learning so much, and I'm very proud of you for all the good work you've been doing.
Thanks for waiting so patiently for me to arrive this morning. My sincerest apologies for being late.

I promise to make it up to you.

Have a great week everyone.
