Dear Jacquise,
This term we been learning about Musical madness. My favourite instrument is a recorder because it can make different sounds by covering holes in the recorder. What is your favourite instrument? We also been learning how to make instruments like a drum and a cake tin.
I can't wait until next week because it will be the film festival if you don't know whats a film festival is when you make a movie about something. then we go to the film festival and sit down and you choose the presenters for your movie after the presenters you sit down on a set and watch other presenters and movies. Our movie is about Peter Pan, have you seen it?

Way of the world
today I am making cool instruments and making a video of it check out my videos hope you enjoy.
Music Recount
This morning we sat down in a circle on the mat then Miss Davis washed records for us. Then she had them out when she gave it to me I felt excited. First we got to learn how to make different sounds with the records. After learning about sounds we had one person to play their record, then the other person, then the other person.
We got to have five minutes to play with the records and make sounds then we went back inside. Then Miss Davis said ”When I say your group you will play a C and walk to the bucket with water in a line after you put the record in the come back and sit on the mat.”
When Miss Davis said my group I went in the line and played it while I was waiting when everyone else blew into their records it sounded like a male rat screaming like a girl. Then I think it got a bit annoying then I put my record back into the bucket and went on the mat.I felt Interested in records because it plays different sounds when I learned that I was amazed.

Musical Madness
This morning, We silently I heard the instruments I stepped in the hall with our hands behind our backs. When we went in the hall there was crazy music playing really loud I felt excited.Then we sat down then then the assembly started.
Mr Burt , Mrs Nua, Mr J, Mr Wiseman and Mr Somerville walked up on the stage they sang a song called Musical Madness, Mr burt was playing a guitar Mrs Nua was playing a tambourine Mr J was playing a trumpet
Mr Wiseman was playing a rock n roll guitar and Mr Somerville was playing a drum kit. After the song each team shared their item with us,
about feeling different emotions by music, team 2 was about making there own music, team 3 was about telling a story using music to talk,team 4 was about playing music in their car and team five was about watching the lion king and change the music.
Last was team five it was about watching the lion king but changing different songs after team fives item we walked out of the hall. My favorite part of team one was when they change music and they feel emotions.
