It was a bit challenging today…. All the students were VERY energetic … they calmed a bit down when we played the xylophones..

On 10-7-25…..In the 4 pm class We did the hello song, did the name rhythm game, reviewed the Kodaly notation system from whole note to 16th notes… reviewed the ~C~ scale … tried out the silly symphony “ The Blue Danube Waltz” using squeaky pig toys… (It was funny and fun, however the toy pigs were too small for the children to … squeeze a squeak out of!!!! ). We then played Twinkle Twinkle Little Star… in unison … on Xylophones… and continues to try out 2 other songs on the instruments…

Class went really well today, they're really enjoyed playing. The Glockenspiel that kind of kept them their attention more than anything else besides actually going over. What kind of notes, they are how much time each of the notes get in the tone of the notes. Everything went well.

For the for class on Tuesday, the 30th of September. What we did was we opened with the Hello song. We did the name chant, we do the kodaly music, symbols music, notes, and the C scale, then I brought out the three different types of xylophones to xylophones and a glockenspiel we learned the C scale. Then what we did is we did learn Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on all the xylophone. Each of the students took turns and then we try to do it together and then I played it for them in one setting. So everything turned out fine.
