Our Third Day of Camp

We had a great time finishing off our Four Seasons camp with the great music from the Autumn and Winter movements. The kids loved the little jingle: 'It's Autumn Time, It's Autumn Time, The leaves are falling down' which we sang to the theme from the Autumn movement. Once again we were so thrilled with how much they have learned to hear in the music! We listened for leaves rustling, wind blowing and in the Winter movement the kids heard lots of shivering and ice storms and windy cold weather!

We had a little lesson about
HIGH and low sounds using our pianos and the Sound of Music favorite, Do a Deer...

Unfortunately, we couldn't find the cold weather outside --- but we made do with HOT! We painted our rhythm sticks, played our instruments and had lots of parachute fun.














We cooled off inside with some musical puzzles and lacing cards:





The kids conducted our masterful orchestra...




Thanks for sharing your fantastic kids with us!!! It was a Great Adventure!
