Hello Edmonds Students! 

Happy Spring!

Even though I don’t get to see you all right now, we can still have some fun with music together! I hope you got to hear and see our presentation of the story ‘They All Saw A Cat’ at our last assembly. If you missed it or forget, don’t worry! Just click the video links and join in. We will use these activities in our school’s spring concert in June.  Come back soon for more music fun!

THESE VIDEOS ARE FOR THE USE OF EDMONDS STUDENTS AND FAMILIES ONLY. Please DO NOT POST these videos in any other location.

And now for some fun with a partner!! Here are some examples of rhythms you can make with a partner.  Invite a friend, a sister, brother, mom, dad, grandma, uncle, dog, stuffed animal…. to be your partner. You can try out one of these examples or just make up your own body percussion pattern. Make sure you can say the words to our spoken word song while you do your pattern.

 

Are you ready for another challenge?! Let’s go back to being a ROCK STAR!! Do you remember that pattern? – STOMP, STOMP, CLAP  Practice it again. And then it’s time to explore some new patterns. Here are some examples of body percussion patterns that go with the ‘rock star’ pattern. You can try some of these and then create your own!
