April 2024

It’s been a busy start to spring in the music room!

• Preschool-Kindergarten has been working on Five Green & Speckled Frogs, learning notjust how to sing it, but also playing it as an ensemble on percussion and melodic instruments.
• 1st-2nd grade has been working on playing Bluebird Through My Window on keyboards, xylophones, and glockenspiels.
• 3rd-6th grade has been working on identifying and using songwriting elements to compose their own songs. Ultimately, students will use this knowledge to compose a school song!

To finish out the school year, students will spend the next several weeks preparing for the spring showcase. Each class will select a song and students will be responsible for learning, practicing, and honing their emerging music skills to present at the recital. The chase will be held on:

• Chester Elementary: June 11 @ 2pm
• New Hingham Elementary: June 12 @ 9:15am
• R.H. Conwell Elementary: June 5 @ 5:30pm
