5th graders have been working incredibly hard this quarter on learning how to play the recorder in Mr. Walker's music class. They have worked on how to properly hold the recorder, play different notes, and on playing with correct intonation on several rhythms and songs.
The students in Ms. Schneider's class were practicing a song from the Civil War era called “I am a poor wayfaring stranger” that incorporated several difficult rhythmic patterns they learned about earlier this year. The students practiced both on their own and as a class to prepare the song, then used a program called “Flip Grid” to record and get feedback from Mr. Walker to help them continue to get better in their playing.
Sixth grade students paired up with kindergarten classes to deliver Bunny Bags to thank them for the kind notes they received before testing!
