MUSIC SHARE WEEK!
June 6-10, 2016 (June 16th instead of
9th for Thursday classes due to Fort Foster trip)
*Dates
and times will vary depending on when you have music class.
Music Share is an
opportunity for students to share something musical with their peers during
music class. They may bring in an instrument from home and store it in the
music room for the day if needed, or use any of the classroom instruments we
have. They can share anything musical (even a poem, skit, or dance routine!)
that they have thought through and planned. Usually we have enough time for
each child to share one or two things.
The purpose of having
a performance day is to give children an opportunity to perform in front of a
small, friendly, known group and learn the etiquette of doing so; to provide a
platform for sharing musical ideas and interests; and to give the rest of the
class practice at being respectful audience members. Most important, performing
is completely voluntary and meant to occur in a casual, stress-free environment.
Here are some ideas
for your music share. Be creative! J :
-Sing a song
-Do a dance
-Recite a poem
-Show an instrument
from home
-Play an instrument
from school
-Create your own
instrument
-Make up a dance with
friends and perform
-Do a skit with friends
-Share your favorite
song on Youtube (Links can be emailed to me at smoon@kitteryschools.com or I can look them up in advance)
-Tell about your
favorite musical, song, or singer/songwriter
-Share a memory of
music class
-Choose an activity we
have done in music to repeat
And much more!

feel free to call the school or email me at smoon@kitteryschools.com
Have fun!
