Music Room
Hoedown!
Hello everyone!
Here is a very fun active listening lesson for you. It's called "Hoedown" by Aaron Copland, my favorite composer. (A composer is someone who writes music.) Enjoy! If you want to send a video of yourself or your family doing the movements, feel free - not required though!
~ Hugs! Ms. O
If you want, please feel free to film a video of yourself or your family singing along with the movements and submit here:

Here's the video without me holding the signs!
Feel free to print or download one of these pictures to color! I would love to see your art!
Chocolate from Mexico
Chocolate is a game from Mexico. If you have a partner to play with, try it out! Also, check out the rhyme and the rhythms that go with it. Mainly, have fun!
If you want, please feel free to film a video of yourself or your family singing along with the movements and submit here:

Sei, Sei, Sei from Japan
This is a game similar to rock, paper, scissors. The first video below is the entire song, and the second one is just the motions! Follow the video and, if you have a partner at home, learn and play along. If not, pretend there is someone across from you. Have fun!

Peter and the Wolf
Listen and watch the instruments of the orchestra play Peter and the Wolf. Feel free to draw the characters, or make stick puppets to help tell the story. (Parents, the Disney Animation version told by David Bowie can also be found on Youtube but I think the wolf is scary, so check it out BEFORE you use it for the little ones.) The link for the orchestra is below.
