This term, we have been listening to (and playing and singing along with)
some fun musical stories. Here is today's story.
Story 7 – The Hare and the Tortoise
Paul leads us in a musical story of Aesop’s classic fable The Hare and The Tortoise.
Have you got a shaker? You might need it to join in! You can make one yourself - find a clean small plastic bottle with a lid, and put some rice or lentils in.
Not too many, maybe a couple of tablespoons - there needs to be space for it to shake!

I hope you enjoyed this story and learning about different music!
See you soon!

"I found it very interesting and I thought that children learned about rhythm, by using body percussion without even realising that they were in a lesson, because it was so much fun for them!"
"I would highly recommend it!"
"I thought the song was lovely - there was a nice mix of playing the bowls, clapping, singing and actions. The whole idea of kitchen percussion is a brilliant one for lockdown but good in usual times too."
"The level of what you did/taught was perfect for their age and similar to things they do at school."
"The children all thoroughly enjoyed the session and were engaged throughout. They enjoyed having the opportunity to hold their own ukulele and learn to play along to some simple songs."
"The session was delivered brilliantly and the different stages were broken down into small sections to allow all children to participate."
