font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">There is a difference between rhythm and beat in music. In our music classes, we work on both. We work on keeping a steady beat while we play or sing a song. We practice feeling macro and micro beats (or big and little beats as I sometimes say to the children) in various time signatures, duple, triple, and asymmetric. We isolate rhythm patterns separately from the songs. Feeling the beat and keeping a steady beat is a developmental music skill that we work on week to week. Check out our Nursery 3 class with the chant, <i>Bee, Bee, Bumblebee, </i>in this </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">video <a href="https://youtu.be/Ezlfp19MXDI">here.</a>. You will notice that we play with the beat, switching from macro and micro. </span></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ezlfp19MXDI" width="320" youtube-src-id="Ezlfp19MXDI"></iframe></div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQoNUHVfjA0TeH3m1g-uNqJB9tyWaim-afevRuis2ZvfsIRP5mZhC082gkdF2V352CpIzyehpNUtQB8vLcQbCHhOFcS_KYmDFrHCelMx53YjNLnlpdMdUOw9aSqs6Lc2Bv7jpbxCkAlxED/s650/IMG-8879.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="650" data-original-width="650" height="169" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQoNUHVfjA0TeH3m1g-uNqJB9tyWaim-afevRuis2ZvfsIRP5mZhC082gkdF2V352CpIzyehpNUtQB8vLcQbCHhOFcS_KYmDFrHCelMx53YjNLnlpdMdUOw9aSqs6Lc2Bv7jpbxCkAlxED/w169-h169/IMG-8879.JPG" width="169" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><p></p>Judy Clayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04222692644094648693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-166584326274346319.post-37478434544652743832021-05-14T13:52:00.000-04:002021-05-14T13:52:44.682-04:00Week of May 10<p> </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDGS11etOyvMdtmvxa79sIS5P6fogP-6THLjiIYK3yGCmCPsj7oqVbN_tq8okSLdzCE4gwrhfHqazFYB0fmY1XRjwzmgUEkEh9MveJfTZCPfueKZUcRImxg2HzeW0asCt_il4dK_T4fdGI/s960/18c3bbe15b3a5d1d14d7a9a642f57322.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="960" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDGS11etOyvMdtmvxa79sIS5P6fogP-6THLjiIYK3yGCmCPsj7oqVbN_tq8okSLdzCE4gwrhfHqazFYB0fmY1XRjwzmgUEkEh9MveJfTZCPfueKZUcRImxg2HzeW0asCt_il4dK_T4fdGI/s320/18c3bbe15b3a5d1d14d7a9a642f57322.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Welcome to HCA Joyful Music</span></p><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: normal;">Featuring our Early Childhood Music Makers</span></h4><div><span style="font-weight: normal;">We are rounding out our year in music class with friendship, fun and movement.

The children wrote their measure on sentence strip which we will arrange as a class into musical phrases and finally a song. </span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEciOmBoUERrZKTngb2TxDCjy15uH_LO98u3Hts13yshXLGJXSUVf27tJ_RsCXhb5KZU97RRvhp8gw-ZPoCPRvfjekVl38_hJOc0bTwqSZWbvQQxCNpAPMdvb_st5C7IWjU4OktB1f3WWe/s4032/IMG_2705.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em;

As the children sang and acted out the song, they also worked on listening, following directions and identifying numbers 1 - 5. They had great fun pretending to be the frogs and jumping into the pond.

This week they began composing and writing various 4 beat measures. This activity helps to develop music literacy as well as decoding, visual discrimination, color correspondence and math skills. Composing and playing their own music gives the children a real sense of ownership and accomplishment. They are doing a wonderful job with the unit. We are on our way to composing our original Kindergarten song!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBMYuSmQdhkaQ3LTqwCiDHU7DBTbOcjHaxFWSbbNoJeJOdKACC7dA6iIjZIQv4nnJk4u1H43tE3LhFeFWRQBhaHdWa05m2GHEVqxi4OhftWVAGAGCV8QXxqXIE4favpR2HwUmPajD-NHfC/s3299/IMG_2641.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em;

Instead of choosing letters to spell words, the children are choosing color coded music notes to create measures.</div><div> The children were introduced to the Musical Alphabet this week. After creating their 4 beat measure they play it using an iPad app with corresponding colored bells.

They are learning to play them properly, experimenting with different rhythms and having fun playing them. To get in the spirit of St. Patrick's Day, they played along with the Irish song, Rin Tin Tinah and had a great time, as you can see in this video<a href="https://youtu.be/ZS0b_WeW-4w"> here</a>. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZS0b_WeW-4w" width="320" youtube-src-id="ZS0b_WeW-4w"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">Our Pre-K students have been working on rhythm patterns and have been introduced to the concept of a rest in music. I often say in music it's important to know when not to play as well as to know when to play. With this <i>Play and Stop </i>song, the children are asked to stop playing and rest. This requires listening and self control. We also varied the tempo and they played right along. They did a terrific job as you can see in this video <a href="https://youtu.be/e0u6oIAdKso">here</a>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e0u6oIAdKso" width="320" youtube-src-id="e0u6oIAdKso"></iframe></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">The Kindergarten is preparing to work on a composition project in which they will all have a part in composing an original song. We have been working on reading and writing quarter notes, eighth note pairs and quarter note rests. This week they were introduced to the <i>PsP Bells </i>app which features color coded pitched bells. This app will help them as they begin their composition. They practiced playing color coded notation to match the bells. We played "Name That Tune" as they played phrases from common children's songs and had to name the song after playing it.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBXDHfUYHRIieGY9dQKQa35vGYh1utWs07ha3y5X5X23lAl_60ac4A4-DvnXbu0DK7eSji1dcrAWJWMFcXetHRYHtyM1qnvwUQyOOIbFhNwm4goHN5D7QtB4oFk6SG6A4HTJ-Rv4pbQKHO/s3930/IMG_2492.HEIC" style="margin-left: 1em;

In addition to Nursery 3, Pre-K, and Kindergarten preparing to lead the school in Lenten prayer services, the children have been having fun listening to jazz music and learning about famous jazz artists. Throughout the school year the children are introduced to a variety of genres and cultures in music. During February, for Black History Month, we make a point to focus on jazz music. The children have been introduced to a variety of jazz artists: Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, John Coltrane and a personal favorite of mine, Trombone Shorty. We have been playing, singing and scatting along with these artists. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Nursery 2 always loves a play along. In this video, the children are jamming to <i>Fanfare </i>from Trombone Shorty's <i>Parking Lot Symphony</i> album.

There are not many schools that provide occasions for their youngest students to lead the school community. This is a point of distinction for Holy Child Academy. We pride ourselves on giving students leadership opportunities from a young age. Public speaking and leading a group are not so scary when you have been doing it since the time you were three years old! </span></div><div> </div><div>The children have begun working on the songs for this prayer service which will focus on ways we talk to God.

The children are busy preparing for our Thanksgiving Prayer Service. They will also be learning songs, chants and other activities that feature themes of creation, fall, gratitude and Thanksgiving. The children are becoming more comfortable with one another and their singing voices are beginning to shine.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Our Pre-K and Kindergarten have begun to learn about dynamics in music. We have listened to different pieces of music and discussed how a change in dynamics can change the mood and feel of the music. The both classes are learning to distinguish loud and soft pieces of music.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;">Our Nursery 2 class starts each music class with our <i><a href="https://youtu.be/5x8s9lCQviE"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Hello Everybody</span></a></i> song. They love singing hello to each of their classmates and hearing their names sung as part of our greeting to begin each class.

This has been a busy and exciting week in the Early Childhood Division at HCA. On March 4, our Nursery and Pre-K students led the school community in a prayer service for the first week of Lent. The children did a wonderful job leading everyone in prayer and song. They really enjoyed singing <i>Peace in My Fingers </i>and <i>Lean on Me.</i></div>

In addition to practicing for the prayer service, the Nursery 3 and Pre-K were introduced to the music of jazz musician Trombone Shorty, a.k.a. Troy Andrews. They listened to the story entitled <i>Trombone Shorty </i>written by Troy Andrews. They watched and listened to performances by the artist. The children enjoyed singing along and pretended to play the trombone. Here they are singing along with Trombone Shorty to the song <i>St. James Infirmary.</i></div>

Our Nursery 2 students have discovered a favorite new rhythmic chant. The nursery rhyme <i>Humpty Dumpty </i>naturally lends itself to a beat in triple meter. The children love pretending to be Humpty Dumpty and falling over. Even more fun is being put back together by having your toes tickled. Check out the video and try this fun chant at home. I am sure you will be met with cries of "again, again" just as we are at school.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the last few weeks, our Nursery and Pre-K students have been introduced to jazz music. The children listened to the book <i>When Louis Armstrong Taught Me to Scat </i>and had some fun singing scat phrases and creating their own scat rhythms.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
They also enjoyed listening and playing along to Louis Armstrong's music. On Tuesday, February 25, we had a Mardi Gras parade in the early childhood hallway. The children especially enjoyed playing and marching along to Louis Armstrong's <i>When the Saints Go Marching In. </i><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">There is a difference between rhythm and beat in music. In our music classes, we work on both. We work on keeping a steady beat while we play or sing a song. We practice feeling macro and micro beats (or big and little beats as I sometimes say to the children) in various time signatures, duple, triple, and asymmetric. We isolate rhythm patterns separately from the songs. Feeling the beat and keeping a steady beat is a developmental music skill that we work on week to week. Check out the Pre-K in our <i>Chubby Little Snowman</i></span><span style="font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i> </i>video below and you will notice that we play with the beat, switching from macro and micro beats. After chanting <i>The Chubby Little Snowman </i></span><span style="font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">and playing with the beat, we isolated the rhythm patterns from the chant.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">We have been having fun learning new songs in duple and triple meters. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Learning to feel the beat and echoing rhythm patterns in different meters is an important part of a child's music development. </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Check out our video of </span><i style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;">Rig A Jig Jig</i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> below. This is a fun movement song in triple meter. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Our Nursery students are really discovering their singing voices. They are singing along in class more and more. Because routine is important to young children, we begin each class with our <i>Hello Everybody </i>song and end each class with our song, <i>Goodbye, So Long. </i>Maybe you have heard your child singing these songs at home.</span><br />

<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The Nursery classes always enjoy a good play along. Allowing the children to play percussion instruments and move to the music helps to develop their sense of rhythm. In the pictures below, the children are using cardboard blocks as drums to play along to the song <i>Drum and Sing. </i></span><br />

Preparing for Christmas</h2>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our Nursery and Pre-K students are hard at work preparing for our Christmas Gala on December 18 and Grandparents' Day on December 19. Please practice the songs with the children at home. <br />
<br />
The Nursery students will be leading us in song with the chorus of <i>Jingle Bells</i> and <i>We Wish You a Merry Christmas. </i><br />

When we have not been rehearsing for the Christmas Gala we have been enjoying other Christmas and Advent themed activities. At the beginning of each music class in December we "light" the Advent wreath with LED Advent candles and sing our Advent song, <i>He is Coming. </i>We have also had some fun moving creatively with scarves while listening to parts of the Tchaikovsky's <i>Nutcracker Ballet. </i></div>

Welcome to HCA Joyful Music</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Featuring our Nursery and Pre-K music makers</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As Thanksgiving approaches, we are continuing with our themes of gratitude, creation, turkeys and food in our music classes. We have been singing songs and playing musical games with these themes. We have even been singing and signing to a creation song the children are learning. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Music is like language. The more a child is exposed to language, the more fluent they become. So too with music, the more children are immersed in an environment with music the more they will express themselves musically. Our Pre-K students are able to sing with a sustained singing voice and most are able to follow the contour of the melody as they sing. Our many of Nursery 2 and 3 students are learning to use their singing voices and discovering how enjoyable music can be. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the videos below, two of our Nursery 2 students, Dmitri and Max, are discovering their singing voices. As the class sang <i>The Turkey Is a Funny Bird</i>, the teacher would toss Tom Turkey to a student and he or she finished our song with a solo, "Gobble, Gobble, Gobble!"</div>
