Music


As Mrs Eeles is away due to her being ill, Room 5 decided to take it upon themselves to learn music. Last week we did Ukulele with 3 students from the school ukulele group, leading the lesson, one of those 3 included myself. Today we played When the Saints come marching in, on xylophones. Mrs Anderson directed the whole lesson and made sure everything was running smoothly. At first, we tried to do the song all in as one but didn't succeed. We then went into groups of four which was much more easier for us students. Each group went one by one, presenting what they'd learnt so far. My group consisted of students Paige, Raymond and San Tat. I think we did very well although we did have a few clear mistakes. I can't wait to see what we'll be doing next week.

Music: Ukulele Lessons


Yesterday, Yvette, Tim and I taught Room 5 some basic chords and plucking to a few songs. Because Mrs Eeles is unwell, we took it upon ourselves to teach our classroom some new things they didn't know. We played Islands and Kiwi Ukulele. I think the lesson went well and a lot of people learnt some new things such as chords or how to read the plucking on a piece of paper. I had an interesting time.
