-What does a conductor do? -What is the conductors stick called? -What are the four families of the Orchestra? -How many members of each family can you remember? -Do you have a favorite instrument? |

2.) LISTEN:
“Jake the Philharmonic Dog” is one of my favorite musical picture books. He is a cute and lucky dog who gets to visit an orchestra with his owner! Listen to me read the story and see how many instruments you meet along the way.

3.) SING: Here is a new song about some of my favorite instruments! Listen as I sing and join in each time you hear an instrument plating. Can you make up some of your own verses about instruments you heard and saw in our orchestra visit and read aloud? Send me a video of your new idea and I will share it next week! Email it to me at: anne_sheridan@psbma.org
4.) MOVE:It’s time to get off the couch and move your body! Grab your family members and follow along. You will practice moving and freezing and following the singing cues. Have fun and don’t be afraid to get silly.
