3D: Unit 2 Class Project.

Students in 3D focused on the skills needed to sing in unison. They learned, rehearsed and recorded this performance of Do Wah Diddy.

Grade 2: Exploring Sounds!

Grade 2 music students have been exploring the idea that 'musical sounds are everywhere.' We have inquired into how sound can be produced and how we can make our own musical instruments through reusing and recycling household items.

Students planned, designed, made and presented their instruments to their class and demonstrated how their instrument produced sound- either through tapping, shaking, scraping, plucking, blowing or a combination.

3A: Unit 2 Class Project

Students from class 3A have explored what it means to sing in unison. They learned, rehearsed and recorded the song, Do Wah Diddy, in which they incorporated male and female vocal parts and percussion accompaniment. Enjoy!

3B: Unit 2 Class Project

Students from 3B learned, rehearsed and recorded an acapella version of the song, Kookaburra. They also decided to arrange the piece by including a combination of singing in unison and singing as a 2-part round. Enjoy!

3C: Unit 2 Class Project.

Throughout unit 2, grade 3 students have been exploring how vocal and instrumental pieces can be organized- through performing in unison or in rounds. To complete the unit, 3C learned the song, Kookaburra. They combined a small choir singing the song as a 2-part round, accompanied by piano, xylophones and drums. Enjoy!
