Year 2 Music Class

Year 2 are starting a unit of work on the Instruments of the Orchestra. Each week we will look at a different section of the orchestra, learning how the instrument is played, how it sounds and what it is made of. In our lesson this week we started learning about the String section. The following students demonstrated their previous learning to the class.

Rueben D. and Marco G. on violin and Jeremy L. and Lucas L. on cello.
