We were lucky enough on Tuesday to have the Musica Jazz ensemble come and perform for the whole school. The recital covers musical instruments, science of sound, key vocabulary and different styles and genres of music. We had a teacher from each family of instruments, the string, woodwind, percussion and brass families, they brought a range of instruments to show us while performing different pieces of music. They talked about how their instruments make the sounds they do and how you can change the pitch, dynamic and tempo when playing the instruments. We had lots of fun joining in with the actions, feeling the different mouthpieces and even creating our own piano! We ended our session by joining in with the song, I'm Still Standing. Thank you to the Musica Jazz team, we had so much fun!
In art, we carefully looked at a flower, like we did in Autumn 1, and then sketched this in our art books. We made sure we added in details that were on the stem, leaves and petals.We then looked back at the first sketch we did in September and compared both images to see how our skills have developed. Look how amazing we are ...
I hope you have a fantastic time at the disco tonight, if you are going, and have a fantastic weekend!
