Sing: "I am With You" with Olaf!
Sing along to this beautiful song that you already might know! Sing with Olaf the Snowman and think about all the people that you are missing. I would love to see you all performing it to your families and friends through the phone or through Zoom calls. Thank you Ms. Sheridan for discovering this amazing song! We miss you very much Pierce! |

This week we are going to be learning about the Brass family! You might notice a lot of familiar instruments. The brass instruments make a very full and strong sound. But they can also be played soft and smoothly! Watch the introduction to the Brass family from Ms. Han below.

LISTEN:
Theme (starts at 0:32)
First listen to the THEME of our piece played by the brass instruments. The theme in a piece of music means the 'big idea", just like it does in a book! Britten announces the theme in the very beginning of the piece with everyone playing. Then, each family gets a turn to play the theme alone.

Read: Tubby the Tuba
We're going to listen to a story about Tubby the Tuba. The tuba is a brass instrument so I thought this would be a perfect book for this week. Listen carefully for the tuba and the other instruments in the orchestra? How many instruments can you count?! |
