Music - listening to Fingal’s Cave

In Music this week, Class Three appraised a classical composer (Felix Mendelssohn) and created a dramatic reading, using the words and phrases that came to mind when listening to Fingal’s Cave. After that, we learned more about dynamics and pitch along with the role of the conductor in an orchestra. The children worked excellently in groups to take turns in being the conductor using hand signals to change the dynamics and pitch of the performers.
