Today the tenth age will be reviewing the notes B, A, G, C, and D on their recorders. We will use these notes to play, "Linus and Lucy" for "A Charlie Brown Christmas."
The sixth grade guitar class will be reviewing whole and half steps. Today we will build the C major scale and extract the three primary chords C, F, and G. We will discuss the circle of fifths and build a scale on G. After building the G, C, and D, chords, we will go back to our guitars and play these chords, then apply them to a familiar song.
The fifth grade is has been learning to use the Yamaha keyboards. Last class we discussed Johann Pachelbel and the "Canon in D." The girls then went to the keyboards and entered the individual string parts of the canon into the Keyboard and we played them back at the end of class. It was quite a concert. Our next goal is to learn "Joyful, Joyful", the theme from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
