Our music and movement project continues in our classroom. During these past few weeks we have observed the children use the materials in appropriate ways. They have learned to shake the wingo egg shakers instead of tossing them. When using the Peruvian drum they tap it gently with their hands. The children have also been asking the teachers to play musical instruments with them by offering instruments or by requesting songs.
Parent involvement/comments: We are excited to share with you that some families have commented on how the children have been singing at home. The teachers in Room One sent an email out with words to the songs we sing on a daily basis and some families have decided to bring out the instruments they once played but had stored away.
Next Step: We hope to invite Ms. Laura from Room 4 to play the flute.
