Music - Explorers

The Explorers continued exploring melody and pitch.

• Using bells we played high and low melodies & accompanied a song we sang together
• We listened to 'The Aquarium'(from The Carnival of the Animals). The children listened carefully to the way the melody moved up and down. And they described what they heard-bubbles, octopuses, and lots and lots of fish. And then they worked very hard putting what they heard into an aquarium picture.
• Using 4 notes each child composed their own melody to play on the bells
