Performing Arts News
Our amazing Year 2 boys have been immersed in activities with a focus on listening, singing, moving and playing percussion instruments. One of our objectives has been to practice keeping a steady beat, either individually or as part of a group. This happens to be a lot harder to do than it sounds! We've found that while we have to really concentrate on our own listening, playing or moving, we also have to keep an ear out for what our classmates are doing. We found that if our dynamics go up, we automatically want to increase the tempo! When we perform songs on the glockenspiels we also have to focus on playing with the correct technique as well as incorporating all of the other musical elements.
