Drama

As I have not been telling you about inquiry I suppose I should now. After having taster sessions of the different types of art (dance, visual art, music and drama) I decided to go with drama. I must say I have only attended three of the many sessions (as I have been away a lot this term) I have learnt tonnes of stuff about drama. For the art sharing event at school we are going to produce three short plays about things that have recently happened in New Zealand the rugby world cup, the Rena disaster, and the Christchurch Earthquake. Last session we worked on the rugby world cup and I can't wait to work on the other plays we are producing.

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.
