Music Lesson

Today’s music lesson will focus upon rhythm. We will learn crochet, minim, quaver and more in this YouTube lesson.
You will learn how to clap your own name, and then afterwards play your name on some household “musical” instruments. Ask permission first if you’re allowed to use the household appliances for this lesson!
Try and complete the activity for not only your name but also the names of your siblings, pets, favourite singers, authors…the list can be endless! Join all the rhythms together to complete the activity.
Have fun in the process! Dress up, create a band, design a poster for your newly formed band…dance!
