2nd Grade Music

2nd Grade

We are having fun with music.  We are beginning to learn about music dynamics.  Music has soft sounds and loud sounds.  Music terms are introduced to us and the words are in Italian.  We learned about Ludwig Van Beethoven this quarter and how he decided to compose "Ode to Joy" when he could not hear anymore.  We can choose to be happy and songs can help us feel good.  We have been dancing, singing, and using our music books to see the notes and the text.  We are learning how to find pages in our book clear up to the 400 numbers.  Did you know that songs can tell stories?
