Jelly Bean Music

Today it was our first Jelly Bean Music lesson. We had Ms Rusa who is from Japan to teach us. She did some warm-up singing and dancing on the Banana song. Then she introduced us to some music notes. After that, she gave us the instruments such as triangles, tumbarine, castanets, and drums to play on. She then introduced us to Liberty Bell's song. It was fun on the first day of the Jelly Bean session.

Today we had Jelly Bean Music Lesson.

Once we said Good Morning to Mrs White and Ms Ruth we sang:

Twinkle, Twinkle Vegemite,On the sandwich brown and white.

If you turn it upside down,
It will make the carpet brown.
Twinkle, Twinkle Vegemite.
I’m o.k and you’re alright! .........

(there is more to this song)

The main note we were learning was "B".

We also played the triangle, castanets, drums and tambourine on the song Overtune from "Carmen".

At end of the session we played our air guitar where we pretended we were playing with our guitar on the song - To the Air Guitar.

It was exciting to use castanets, triangles, tambourine and drums with the plastic stick
today for our music lesson.

How did you go?

Mrs White came to teach us some music today. She taught us some of the main keys on the xylophone such as A,B,C,D etc and gave us the feel of how it sounds like when played with a plastic stick. It was really pleasing. We had fun.
