In Year 5 we are looking at Blues music. We learnt how to play a 12-bar blues on the xylophone and stay in time with an accompaniment. @foxfield @CedarFoxfield @Olivefoxfield @yew_class

To finish, the children performed a song, reinforcing their key message - refugees are humans first, being forced from their homes due to conflict. As agents of change, we must stand together to support our community #onestorythestoryofmillions #thebonesparrow #agentsofchange

In Y1 we created drawings of the sounds we make on instruments. Then someone was the conductor and we ordered the pictures to make a piece! Y1 know how to work together. @FoxfldHazel @FoxfldPine @FoxfldJuniper @foxfield #primarymusic #graphicscore

Y1 are following graphic instructions and interpreting symbols. What does each symbol mean? Is it tap? Slide? Scrape? @FoxfldHazel @FoxfldJuniper @FoxfldPine @foxfield #primarymusic #graphicscore
