This is a great song for teaching harmony, rhythm (clicking on the off-beat), and dynamics and structure. We have learned about varying dynamics (volume in music) to make it more interesting for the listener and the performer. Vocabulary that came up included crescendo (gradually getting louder), diminuendo (gradually getting quieter), and various degrees of volume from pianissimo through to forte.
4SS doing the round Sally Go Round The Sun. We have just learned the first part of the song. The next step is to make two groups, then three and sing the song in a three part round. We are aiming for a full year 4 performance as in the above video- can't wait to we all get together because these year 4s can really sing and perform well already, so I'm very excited!
