These 4th and 5th graders made frame drums with @mrsfried that have West-African kente-cloth-inspired decorations and used them to create a rhythmic speech-piece with Ms. Teuscher. Nice job, soloists! #musicEd @AOSA1968
Bean bags on our heads to help us keep the movement out of our torso as we create some moves using Flamenco and Salsa inspiration from Spain and Cuba to @asolermusic'sand @JLo's "El Mismo Sol." After all, we all live under the same sun 🌞 #musiceducation
Connecting how "music brings people together." We studied the history and influence of African American social dance (Camille Brown) and the evolution of Jazz, and came up with choreography that includes the Charleston, the twist, and other Lindy Hop inspiration! #ibpyp
What a cool unit exploring harmonic minor, the tabla, sitar, and India. We learned Manju Durairaj's "Diwali" song and dance with some traditional Bharatanatyam dance poses. @ManjuOrff@CHUHRoxEl
Listen to this awesome Kdg musician improvising! We recognized changes in music and learned this piece through audiating. @AOSA1968 #MusicEducation@CHUHRoxEl
Funny story. I told them how, one time when I sang a Xmas concert here, I spotted @KingJames sitting in their box seats. They lost their minds! “We’re in LeBron’s seats!!!” 2 were convinced he might walk in at any moment.
