Music Lesson 3 – Forest School Percussion

For our work in Music this week, we have been working on the control of percussion instruments. We’ve looked at tempo, beats and pulse as part of our work on our composer Ludovico Einaudi. Today in Forest School, for our third music lesson, we explored using a range of percussion and natural instruments to create our own percussive patterns (beats). Here are a sample of our work.

Torah Scrolls

Today, for our work on Judaism, we have looked at the language of Hebrew that is used in Torahs. The children were surprised at how some sounds from English are not in Hebrew. They also commented on how Hebrew is read from right to left, like Arabic in Islam.

Fractions of Amounts

This week in Maths we have been working to find fractions of amounts with different numerators and denominators up to 10/10. The children have all done brilliantly with this! Well done Class 2!
