Music Update

January was an exciting month in Music as the Grade 3 and 4 students explored the jazz genre. We listened to and watched a number of jazz performances to help us better recognize examples of musical improvisation and scat singing. The Grade 3 and 4 students accompanied jazz songs using percussion instruments and syncopated rhythms. Students began to explore how the skills practiced in Music class can help them succeed in other subjects such as math. Through singing and playing rhythms, the Grade 3 and 4 students started to learn songs that can help them with their skip counting and times tables.
