Notes from Mrs. Pogmore12/3/14
I have begun the process of trying to outfit the general music classroom with Orff instruments. For more information about the Orff method of teaching, you can check out this comprehensive explanation/description: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orff_Schulwerk 1/3/14 I hope everyone has been enjoying their GLORIOUS holiday break. I've been enjoying my time and doing some planning for some fun things to come in all levels of music. The cafe concert is the next big thing on the agenda for the secondary students, with this year's theme being "Dinner and a Movie". That theme should make for a really enjoyable evening of music and entertainment. In the lower grades, I have some fun new ideas of how to get really "hands on" with learning some basic music theory. Stay tuned for more on that. |
