***MUSIC CLASS IS IN NEED OF 5 GALLON BUCKETS! Yes, that is what I said! The BUCKETS are actually instruments for music class for us to practice our rhythms and beats! If you have a 5 gallon bucket you can donate to the music room, please bring to the music room so we have enough buckets for all students! THANK YOU!!!****
Vocal Activities:
VOCAL WARM UPS - Have your child select a vocal warm up below. Make sure they are standing tall and ready to give full effort! :)
LET'S SING
Select one or more of the following songs and sing along. Remember to stand tall, feet few inches apart, arms relaxed at your side, breathing deeply from abdomen. Always do your vocal warm ups first before singing.
These are a few samples. If you are interested in other songs, with parent's permission, go to youtube and type in the title of your song with "lyrics." If you type karaoke then you will get the music with the lyrics but no vocals. Have fun SINGING!!!
RHYTHM ACTIVITY: Select a video below to practice creating different rhythms!
Materials: bucket and two sticks. Try to copy one of the drummers in the video. Do your best to keep up with them. If too difficult or if you are in the mood to get creative, make up your own rhythm to go with the beat! Do this activity several times to get it right!
