This week in music we continued working on our pumpkin, bat and spooky songs.  Classes used non-pitched percussion instruments including wood blocks, shakers, guiros, to accompany songs like “Pass the Pumpkin” and “In the Hall of the Mountain King” and "Hungarian Dance No. 5."  

Grade Four students played the pitched Boomwhackers, and the Grade Five classes continued working on their soundscapes to accompany the Skeleton Dance video.
