PURPLE Winter Homework
Purple Winter Homework
For the WINTIER term we will read and write music in the key of G major, and E minor.
Please plan to spend 15 to 30 minutes each day going through the music workbook and playing the recorder. Homework page numbers are at the back of the book, and here below on this page. Contact me if you ever have any questions.
VIDEO: I have also made videos on how to do the homework for each lesson. These are for members of the Rainbow Hummingbird Magical Musical Spa -cost $7.77 per month.
WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART
We will now start to listen to the music of WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART. In Purple the students go through a new composer every month. They will also have assignments to complete on music history.
For the WINTER TERM we will be learning about the instruments of the WOODWIND FAMILY.
We will continue to learn about different composers. Please make sure to do the assignments.
