How many of you saw this You Tube video that went viral last year?
Well, it spurred an idea on a much smaller scale. After seeing this, I went to the music teacher and mentioned to him that I would love to collaborate on some sort of production with our iTouches and that I would be more than willing to help however possible. Well, it's happening ! We are collaborating to create an iEnsemble for the Christmas concert and we will be performing Feliz Navidad!! Now keep in mind, we are on a MUCH smaller scale, but talk about a bunch of excited first graders.
Students are learning and practicing how to use several instrument apps on the iTouches and iPads. Today kiddos got the chance to work with these apps and to try-out for an electronic part. More info and pics to come as the project progresses.

Do you have an arrangement you are using with written parts? I'd be very interested.
ReplyDeleteNope, our music teacher is teaching the kids through the use of modeling and the fabulous ideas he's got in his head.
