Mime to Music…

Music often makes us think and feel different things, so the year 2’s began thinking about what animals they could mime to different piano music. Students thought about musical elements such as high, low, fast, slow, loud and soft and how these could relate to different animals. Below are some photos of the students miming to the music… How many different animals can you see?

The students also used Chime Bars and Glockenspiels to continue their learning about pitch.  Students learnt all the verses to ‘A Sailor went to Sea Sea Sea’ and played the song on the instruments. Students rotated and shared the instruments so that everyone could have a go!
