Music/ TEAM chant.

IALT: Reflect on TEAM chant practise.
Kia Ora and welcome back to my blog!.

Yesterday, the Kia Manawanui syndicate went to Music in the last block to record our TEAM chant from Camp.
Something that I enjoyed was when chanted in front of a recording microphone set, and that the whole class was involved in the recording session.

The challenging areas for me was when Miss Aireen kept on telling us to repeat the chant until it was perfecto, I started to lose my voice from shouting loud and I couldn't do the chant right, due to my voice.

But, something that I didn't enjoy was hearing myself over the speakers, as I helped lead the chant. Because I sounded so young and so little. It was even better, when I lost my voice, because I couldn't hear myself over the speakers.

Although, the whole session for music was great! Because, everybody participated including me, and everybody took the session seriously.

Thank you for reading my blog and I hope you enjoyed!

IALT: REFLECT ON MUSIC. 

Kia Ora! And Malo E Lelei!

Today I will be reflecting on myself and group 1's music session. 

During our music class time, we were learning about rhythm, beat, pitch, note, volume and tempo. 

We learned about this because, these are the basics in music. 

After learning the basics, we then played a game called the Piano says. 

This game is like simon says, but with no talking, but talking from the piano.

How to play:

If the music teacher presses on the low note everybody will bob down. 

If he/she presses the middle note, you'll fold your arms standing. 

And if he presses high pitch, your body stands straight with arms in the air. 

Try playing this game with your class. 

After playing our game, we then learned how to read music and musical notes. If the notes are between each line, it will spell "F.A.C.E" and the pattern will keep continuing. If it is on the line, it will spell "E.G.B.D.F" as for us to remember it, it stands for : Every Good Ballet Dances Fast. But in music alphabets, the only letters are "A.B.C.D.E.F.G". 

Here is a quick tip:

In between the lines spell face, and on the line spells egbdf. 

The pattern actually goes like this. 

F(G), A(B), C(D). 

What I really enjoyed about music was getting to learn how to read music. This session helped me learn piano notes, and now I can try and play the piano. 

This is the end of my music reflection and hope you enjoyed reading!.
