Composing for Halloween
In music we always look for ways to use the holidays/seasons as part of our learning. This week students are composing using pumpkins and the notes that they have been working on.
First Grade used their new rhythm notes Ta and Ta/di to compose patterns. They used the drums to play their patterns. Other grade levels used different pitch and rhythm notes to create their masterpieces.
Watch for these papers coming home with your student. Ask them to share their songs with you!

Typing!
The fourth graders are working on developing their typing skills. The state of Wisconsin asks that all fourth grade students type at a rate of 20 words per minute. We have a ways to go, but we're working hard to reach that standard. :)
