3rd Grade Musicians: Harmony in the Making
3rd grade music students have incorporated 16th notes into their musical repertoire!
Students' journeys began with an exercise in body percussion to internalize the rhythm's pulse and its connection to this new addition.
Students then immersed themselves in a folk dance, exploring how the rhythm complements whole-body movements and synchronizes with their peers. Learning music through dance in this way helps students engage all their senses and provides them with the perfect opportunity to exercise their “wiggles.”
At the end, each student took turns conducting the class composition!
