This week, R/1 classes have been using shapes and images, together with percussion instruments to help develop their skills in rhythm and beat. The images were used as inspiration for students to demonstrate how to play each instrument. Year 1 students were fantastic leaders and were able to share their ideas with the Receptions. Classes moved around the music room and had a go at playing new instruments throughout the Music lesson!

Year 2 students have been working on rhythms this week and have had a chance to practice and perform rhythms using the above percussion instruments. Classes have focused on the rhythm concepts of “Ta” and “Ti-Ti”. Have a go at clapping the rhythms below:
