Welcome to 4th Grade Virtual Music!

For the first few days of this new and anxiety-producing time of our lives, it’s good to just absorb and appreciate music and the comfort it can offer. At the end of this document there is a “Suggested Listening” Section. I encourage you to do a little listening each day in addition to what is below!

​

I will be including some resources if you have a ukulele, recorder, guitar or piano on the Resources for Everyone page!

 

Week 1:

Read the section on Treble Clef below the game, and then play the game about note names:

​

If you can’t play the game, you can complete the “Code Breaker” worksheet, as it’s the same thing!

 

Next, sing along with Land of the Silver Birch: ​https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agzAC8Ot1fc

​

Week 2:

Do the “CodeMaker” worksheet for treble clef. Remember, “The Staff has Five...” poem, and that that goes from ​bottom​ ​to top.​ Try not to use the cheat-sheet at the top too often. Give yourself a minute to try and figure it out first!


Remember, as notes get higher, you go forward in the alphabet...

​

Sing along with Kookaburra: ​https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2VitpGRalw

 

Try unscrambling the instrument names (with clues):

Band Students:

We’ll have some really cool stuff up soon, still working on getting the tech all set up!
