Curso 2024-2025. 1º de ESO

 Welcome to a new year in Moñino School. 

We started this year singing and dancing some African songs and our favourite choreography: We will rock  you. 

Some of cover pages: 

We sang "Do, re, mi" from the famous film "The sound of music". 

"Do, re, mi" in "The sound of music"

We reviewed the names of the notes with an exercise and studied what musical character is. 

THE CHARACTER OF MUSIC

We described "We will rock you" as powerful, catchy, rhytmic, energetic, lively, optimistic, compelling, arousing, surging, passionate,perhaps aggressive. 

We played and sang more instrumental pieces of music with our recorders and glockenspiels.

During the next week we studied Tempo, the speed of music.
