Music with Gordon Term 1
The children have enjoyed a term of settling into their new classes and routines.
In Primary, there has been a focus on choosing from a range of songs and instruments to play and explore, plus a movement and relaxation end to the lesson. When the weather was kind, we were also able to take our music lessons outside.
A big group from Ochiltree and Duntarvie has focused on following musical instruction and instrument types. We have taken turns to wear a crown and conduct an orchestra of Tappers, Scrapers and Shakers, the musicians playing instruments in different ways. The group also explored volume control and followed instructions from the monarch to be loud or quiet.
A small group from Duntarvie explored guitars, learning to strum and pick the strings to both uptempo and more downbeat blues backing tracks, enjoying the vibrations that the strings make.
Have a great break and I look forward to making more music together after the holiday.
