Music Ms. Caranto k-2

Music Blog Week 4

            This week in Music with Miss Caranto, Kindergarten will be reviewing their 5 Voices (speaking, singing, humming, whisper, thinking) using known simple chants and rhymes. They are also beginning to sing “solo” in a short song called “Doggie, Doggie.” 1^st Grade will be practicing experiencing melodic contour, which we call the “shape of the melody” through known songs. They will be learning a new song to introduce them to musical concepts like crescendo and decrescendo. 2^nd grade will be practicing their “detective” skills, detecting errors in rhythm of known songs, and they are beginning to learn “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” which Headmaster Keffer would like all students to sing once a week when the PA system is up and running.
