Magical Music

This term we have been focusing on pitch and the different types of instruments. We have looked at using percussion instruments and tuned instruments.




Tuned instruments have lots of different notes and can have a low or a high pitch sound. They are instruments like the piano, a xylophone or our marimbas.


Percussion instruments have only one note that they play and these instruments might be a drum, maraca, cymbol or a triangle. We have used percussion instruments to keep the beat in our music lessons.


Over the next few weeks we are going to practice playing a song on the xylophone and marimba... Watch the video below and find out what the song is!




Perhaps at the end of the term we can video a mini concert to put on our blog and share with our viewers!

    1. Thank you Curtis, what a very kind comment you have said to us. I tried to sing it along with the video but I was disturbed by my brother.
