Second Grade News

Students are working to read, write and create using quarter notes, paired eighth notes and quarter rests.  We are reading, writing and creating melodies with the pitches mi-so.  Students have been learning to perform to accompany themselves with ostinato patterns, which are short rhythmic or melodic phrases that repeat.  We explore these musical concepts using singing, speech, movement, body percussion and instruments.

Second Graders will participate in a music program in the spring.  It will be based on the book, "Frogs Jump," by Alan Brooks and Steven Kellogg.  Mr. Kellogg will be visiting our school in April.  You will receive more information about the concert closer to the time.
