Music in Y3

In Year 3 we aim to give children the power to express the inexpressible, foster imagination and ignite a lifetime of passion for music. 

Session 1 

 Our aims of this session were to develop an understanding of the history in music and to use musical vocabulary to describe what we like and don't like about a piece of music.

 Here are our pieces of music that we compared and appraised.

Renaissance period - La Morisque & Danse Basse Bergeret aus der Danserye-Suite - Tylman Susato

Safaa - 'I liked the instruments they used and find it calming'

Irza - 'I like how to music changed but they didn't stop playing their instruments'

Ruqayyah - 'I didn't really like the piece because there wasn't any singing'

Tobias - 'I heard the trumpet'

Aria - 'I heard the French horn'

Soul classic - "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" Lyric

Aiza - 'I thought the piece would make me feel sad but it didn't'

Zahra - 'I felt happy listening to the song'

Kehkashan - 'The instruments played are different to the Renaissance piece'

Ayaat - 'In this song there is someone singing but it was only instruments in the other piece'

Session 2 and 3

Our aims for this session were to use musical vocabulary to describe a piece of music and compositions.

Using a variety of musical instruments we leant and practiced our musical vocabulary.
