Week 1 Day 2 Music Genre and Composition

Welcome back!

Today is Week 1 Day 2 and we learned about music genre. Yesterday we talked about different types of instruments and today we listened to music from many different genre.  This is a pretty easy thing to do - you can turn on a radio or visit any online music store to sample songs.

Since we made instruments yesterday we started to compose a song to play for a concert on Friday. Nothing fancy or complicated. The kids just made up a short little song and played their instruments along with the words.

In addition to that we also ate some refried beans with dinner - you know "Musical Fruit". Hey the kids think it's funny :)

Have fun!
