Foundation Music!
Nicola Sheerin
We have improved our music skills this term - and we’ve had fun too!
During our lessons we have learned to play the Djembe drums, the claves, the agogos and we’ve also had a go at playing in harmony on the xylophone! We have worked hard to keep in time with the piano and are much better at playing a steady pulse and knowing when to start and stop so that we all play at the same time.
We have played ‘taking-turns’ games to practice our listening skills and have played accompaniments to chants and to our singing - it’s tricky to sing and play at the same time. We have also performed for the whole school - they were very impressed.
