Musical moments

 in Skiddaw by

We have been using the well known tune of Frere Jacque and changing the words for this autumn harvest time of celebration.

In music we have been arranging this piece, playing tuned and untuned percussion with great effect. We have been concentrating on working as a team and trying to keep together following the conductor or leader. We videoed last week’s performances and today discussed what went well and what would be even better.

Take a look at our final performances here.

Popcorn Senses

 in Bowfell by

We’ve been learning all about our senses in Bowfell Class. We started with a piece of popcorn!

We looked at it with our eyes, felt it with our fingers and smelt it using our nose. Then, the best bit, we got to taste it using our tongues and listened to sound it made with our ears.

We are going to be exploring all of our senses over the next week, in lots of different ways.
