Making music... OUTSIDE!




Today was a lovely day so we decided to do music outside.  The Grade 4/5s rehearsed a new song we're doing for the last day of school.  




Some Grade 5s are going to audition tomorrow for a solo.




After we rehearsed our song, we practiced our recorders.  Students are working on the Recorder Karate levels.


The Grade 2/3 classes also went out in the afternoon and we learned the African song from Ghana called "Obwisana."

Obwisana sa nana, Obwisana sa x2

ENGLISH:
The rock has crushed my hand, grandma
The rock has crushed my hand



We decided it was easier to keep the beat using a cup instead of a rock, which the game is usually played with.  We practiced passing the cups to the right (home / pass) and realized that we have do it in the beat and using team work.



We also spent some time practicing our recorders outside.

It was much cooler in the shade!
