Listening and Responding to Music
March 11th, 2019Over the past month, 5th class have been working on integrating music, art and ICT class together.
They listened to various pieces of music from around the world and had to quickly draw an animation of a scene that they imagined while listening to the music.
Photos were then taken of each drawing and the class created a movie together, adding in the music itself and commentary from every child in the class describing their work.
We hope you enjoy watching it and that you can take some time to imagine a scene for yourself!!
