Second+Grade

Our second graders have been learning to play several songs on the xylophones.
They began by learning to play, Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, by "ear." This took decision making on their part as well as listening to be able to decide if what they were playing sounded like the song. They continued on to learning, Hot Cross Buns, and recently a song from Japan called "Kaeru" or the "Little Frog Song."

This week we began learning a song and dance in Spanish called "El juego chirimbolo."

 WAY TO GO, SECOND GRADERS!
