AlWe've been working on a Garageband unit in 6th grade general music during this week and last week, and have been having a great time! Last week, the students composed ABA compositions on Garageband. They shared their compositions with each other on Friday. Click below to watch one group's presentation from 7th period! Their passion for their music shines through! :) Also, another one of our students in 8th period composed a song called "Mo Po" that is also a wonderful example of an ABA composition-click below to listen!
Today we took our club picture in Cantabile, our advanced 7th/8th grade chorus. Of course, we had a couple of funny pictures that did not go as planned as well! :) We're having a blast preparing our music; it's tricky, but the students are really demonstrating their musical independence as we sing in as many as 8 parts at a time!!
7th grade choir has been going well! The group is really positive and hard-working, and we always accomplish a great deal together and have fun! Below are some pictures of our time together in morning rehearsals and during our lunchtime lessons!
The 6th grade general music students have worked extremely hard to write their own songs that feature both vocals and their new guitar skills. They were asked to write at least 2 verses, and to include 2 chorus sections, as well as an introduction. They did a great job, and served as wonderful, supportive, audience members to their peers. Congratulations, 6th grade! Here are some sample compositions, attached as files below! :)
