Year 5
The Year 5 children got going with their musical learning today, working on the xylophones. It is the first time since March 2020 that we have been able to have them all playing together, and they did a fantastic job of being 'in sync' with each other. We set up repeated patterns to make a bass line, harmony, and melody: ask them why music is like a Victoria sponge...
Here are Maple class, sticking to the beat and playing together.
Over the course of this term, their musical journey will take them down Roman Roads, and through Anglo Saxon Villages. The children will be reading sections of music, and creating their own patterns and ideas.
They finished the day with a singing assembly in the hall. It was a brilliant way to finish the first few days back this year.
