Beginning Chorus Monday 10/29/2018

Monday 10/29/18 

We learned a lesson on Major scales. A major scale is a scale that follows the pattern of Whole,Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Half. Tomorrow and Wednesday we will have a substitute and Mrs. Patchett expects us to be on our best behavior. We will get a worksheet with staffs and notes on them. The sheet will give us the starting note of the pattern and using accidentals we will label a major staff. 

We worked on page 6 in Our Winter Wonderland, and measures 17-22 in Flow water. We also the rhythm in Hallelujah chorus in measures 34-41. The rhythm is weird because with every dotted note instead of holding the pitch longer we pause for just a sec. like taking a tiny breath.
