Young Child 2

Week 4:

The journey to music literacy is a step by step process. Today they discovered how note heads on the music staff connect with rhythmic symbols (ta and ti-ti) to make complete music notes! They also discovered how bar lines help organize music notes on the staff.

At home this week, enjoy helping your child locate notes on the music staff (Activity Page 1b) and play the glockenspiel. Please take note of the information at the bottom of Music at Home 19 that explains the process of playing melodies from musical memory.
