The last 2 weeks of November, the grade five and six students chose their own inquiry question to research on computers.  The grade three and four students prepared to go on a field trip to hear the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra perform "Peter and the Wolf" and upon return they did some follow up activities.  The grades one and two students worked on beat and rhythm pattern.

In December, the grades one - six students had music in the Learning Commons.  It was an opportunity to practice playing the following instruments:
Grades 1, 2:  Tone Educator Bells
Grades 3, 4:  Tone Chimes
Grades 5, 6:  Handbells

They learned the technique of ringing the instrument, playing the beat and/or rhythm pattern on the instruments.

A questions posed to all grades was, "What is harmony?"
To grades 3 - 6, they also answered, "What is a chord?"  (They also chorded on the instrument.)
