We continued our music unit ‘The Doot Doot Song’ by warming up doing ‘The stomp canon’. This gave us the chance to warm up our voices and our bodies.
To begin our lesson, we talked about chords and triads. Using glockenspiels, we worked as a group of 3 to play C major, F major and A minor. Once we had practised keeping in time with one another as a group, we then tried playing each chord as a whole class ensemble before moving from chord to chord to create a short 3 bar piece of music.
Finally, we recapped the notes B, A and G on the recorder, and applied this to a short tune where we had to move between the 3 notes seamlessly.
