This short two and a half day week flew right by! I can't believe that it is Thanksgiving already!
We had a great short week in Exploring Music 6! On Monday we focused on finishing up our second ensemble that we have been working hard on. This ensemble is called "Take Time in Life". This ensemble was a little bit different than our first ensemble. This song combined movement, singing, and different percussion instruments, too! Take a look at the video below of the 3rd period Exploring Music class of OMS performing "Take Time in Life"

We started our final percussion ensemble on Tuesday! Students were greeted by a recording of our final song called "High Life". This song is the most challenging, but the students have a great start on it! We learned three different drum parts: low drum, medium, and drum part. One thing that makes this ensemble tricky is the fact that all of the drums start at different times. Ask your musician if they can remember when each part starts!
I'm enjoying working with all of the 6th graders! Have a great Thanksgiving, be safe, and check out our blog when we come back! :)
