Ashley Elementary Music's Podcast

Students were directed to compose and perform a song that highlights a teachable concept or fact. They were put into groups and given the freedom to brainstorm ideas, melodies and other musical elements. They wrote their song out, some added instruments and others chose to sing acapella. What you are about to hear is the culmination of that activity.

Ashley's 5th Grade band rehearsal highlights. "Frere Jacques" in a round, "Old MacDonald Had a Band" and "Hard Rock Blues".

1st grade students read the "5 Little Pumpkins" poem and put percussion instruments to it as sound effects. There are 6 short performances included in this podcast. Enjoy!
