Week 2 Reflection: Inquiry-Music

Last Thursday and Friday we did a taster of music in room 7. We have been tasters of different kinds of art because art is our inquiry for this term. The four kinds of art are dance, music, drama and visual arts. We did it to help us choose what kind of music we are going to work on. In music we experimented with percussion instruments. We learned the four different elements which are to music beat, rhythm, pitch and tempo. I think I might do music and if I do I will like to make my own tune/beat using the drums.

Week 1 Reflection: 3D Shapes

Over the last couple of days we have been working with 3D shapes. 3D stands for three dimensions and the three dimensions of a 3D shape are length, width and depth. The parts of a 3D shape are faces, edges and vertices (corners). The first pic below is a pyramid made out of sticks and glue tack. Pyramids have 5 faces, 8 edges and 5 vertices. The second pic is off a diamond. Diamonds have 8 faces, 12 edges and 6 vertices.
