BLT Elementary School. Grades 3-6. Thurs. April 11 2.30-3.30pm

Great class today. Also, thank you to the parents who responded to my initial Email, I hope these blogs will continue to be useful in keeping up to date with your child's progress.

Level 1 (Dylan, Rama and Taylor):
You worked on 'Old Grey Goose' and started a new song 'Pop goes the Weasel'.
We worked on memorizing note and rest values. Check out this note value chart.

We also worked on 4 beat rhythms and did some work naming notes in the Theory Thinker. If you would like to practice your note reading skills. try out this game: Note Trainer.

Level 2 and 3 (Kara, Grace, Rachelle, Veronica, Jazlyn and Krista - we were missing Savannah today):

Today we did a practice test for your assessments next week. Here is a copy for your to print out: Level 1 and Level 2.
We talked about naming notes, writing down scales, finding the distance between two notes (intervals), and note values.
Please review this Note Value Chart so that you are familiar with the different types of notes and rests and how many beats they are worth.
You can also practice naming notes with this Note Trainer.

Finally Level 2 practiced their songs 'Pop goes the Weasel', 'On top of Old Smokey' and 'Get Up'.
Level 3 practiced their songs 'Let it be', 'Happy Birthday', and 'Clementine'.

Very good work today.
See you next week.
