Next, print of this MUSIC MATH SHEET OR look at it on the screen and write your answers on a piece of paper. When you are done, open this ANSWER KEY to check your answers. ATTENTION CAMPERS! Do you like to sing around the campfire. Check out these songs you can learn before you go!
It's time to try adding bar lines to some music. First, watch the instruction video below. Second, print this worksheet and try it on your own. Third, open the answer key and see if you put your bar lines in the same places as me. Students at school and at home will be getting the same assignments and your teacher should be sending this assignment to you. So, if you have done what your classroom teacher sent, great! If not, you can access the same work below. Keep on learning!
Click HERE for the instructions Click HERE for the work sheet This week listen to one of George Gershwin's best known compositions. As you listen to the podcast and are learning about the piece see if any images come to mind. What does it make you think of? Do you connect it to any other pieces you've heard or a certain event in your life? After you've listened to the podcast, watch the second video. The creator of that movie had a very good imagination!
