Library/Tech: Library: After reading a book, fill out the book report that is attached.

Technology: Big exciting news: we are beta-testing a virtual coding program that allows our students to complete coding challenges online. If you are interested in trying this with your student, go to code-beta.makewonder.com. Teacher code is pc8gm. Look under “5th grade” then scroll until you find your child’s name. Your child can try to complete puzzles and have some fun exploring this site! If you run into any glitches, please email me (see Ms. Arnold’s email below) and I will forward your comments and questions to the company, since this is a beta test, there may be some! Also, this only works with ChromeBooks and laptops and is not compatible with iPads or phones, yet!

Also, create a Dash & Dot comic strip (see attached comic strips with blank talk bubbles).

PE: Baseball / Softball Skills This week you will be working on your underhand tossing and overhand throwing. Check out the attached posters to see the correct form for tossing and throwing. Equipment: Any ‘soft’ ball that can fit in your hand or a “sock ball” (a couple of socks balled into each other) - use whatever you can find to replicate a ball. We recommend Baseball/Softball skills be practiced outdoors whenever possible. Underhand Toss: Practice tossing to a target on the floor. Your target can be a laundry basket or any “ground area” you designate as your target. See if you can toss accurately into your target 10 times. Overhand Throw: Practice throwing to a target ona wall or even to a partner. See if you can throw accurately to your target 10 times. Extension(s) of the Week: How many times IN A ROW can you accurately throw to your target. Try to beat your last record.

General Wellness: How to lift your spirits! Students can make a list or a poster of 10 to 15 things that: make them happy; they can do by themselves; doesn't require adult assistance; costs any money; or requires a screen. Hang the list or poster in their room. When they are feeling bored, upset or lonely go to their list for ideas to find fun and healthy activities. Examples: Create a 3-D animal out of recycled materials; write a poem or a song; work on a puzzle or make your own if you don't have one; paint your nails; try an experiment you learned about in school; take a dog for a walk, climb a tree... Try something you may have never done before but wanted to try. Have fun with this!!

Materials: Each player needs about ten markers of one color and one copy of the game board (with optional answer key). Number of Players: 2

Objective: To have the most squares covered by the end of the game

Directions: 1. Roll a pair of dice, and determine the sum of the numbers rolled. 2. Find the number that matches the sum of the numbers you rolled. 3. Answer or solve the task. 4. Find the answer or solution in one of the circles. 5. Place your marker on the circle.

Other Important Information: 1. If another player rolls the same sum as you and gets the answer correct, he or she may “bump” your marker and place his or her marker on the circle. 2. You can protect your circle by rolling the same sum again and placing another marker on top of the existing one. Two markers on the same circle by the same player will protect that player from being bumped.

Week 6 4-5 (5/11-15) Spotlight on ! PERCUSSION Timbre: “The unique quality of sound” of an instrument or voice.

How is Percussion sound produced? By striking, shaking, or scraping. How do you play these instruments? Hint: most percussion is hit or struck to make a sound.

Musical Expression “Dynamic Conducting Paddle” Project:

(1) P rint out the dynamic markings below, and cut into four squares.

(2) U se a popsicle stick, pencil, or stick as the base. Tape or use a glue stick to stick the letters together, face out on either side of the stick to make a Conductor’s “paddle”. Put about 2 inches of the stick in between the papers (trim as needed).

(3) G et another person (Sibling, Parent, Friend) to sing or play a song you know, or use the composition you created using the rhythm cards from previous weeks activities, while you hold up one side to face them, then flip (rotate) the other side of each paddle. Explain what the letters mean:

f = Loud, p = Quiet, ff = Very Loud, p p = Very Quiet [Practice each one first]

Place one paddle in each hand. Raise one hand to start song (o nly one hand can be up at a time) . “Conduct” the dynamic changes by twisting your wrist back and forth (to show the other side), and raising/ lowering your hands, to get 4 different markings. The musician has to change their volume level to match, but don’t switch too fast! Have fun taking turns “Dynamic Conducting” and “Performing”!

Percussion Artist:

Ernesto Antonio "Tito" Puente was an American musician, and . He was a native Puerto Rican living in New York City's Spanish Harlem. He is often credited as being the "The King of Latin Music". Listen to him playing on a Jazz Classic “Take Five” below.

Music – 4th & 5th grade – Week 7 Spotlight on Woodwinds Listening Lesson

Timbre – (pronounced tam ber) The unique quality of sound an instrument (or voice) makes.

Woodwinds – Generally made of wood. Sound is made by blowing (wind). Most use single or double reeds made of cane. The size of the instrument determines how high or low sounds it produces.

The flute is one of the highest pitched instruments in the orchestra. Originally, it was made of wood. Now it is made from silver or gold and it is about 2 feet long. It is played by blowing air across the top of the mouthpiece hole. (This is like blowing across the top of a pop bottle.) It has a light and airy sound. You can change pitch (high and low sounds) by pushing the buttons on the instrument.

*Experiment: Find a Coke bottle and try to create sound by blowing across the top. For even more fun, put water inside and see how the pitch changes. (for fun – not required)

Listen to the flute – from our textbook’s sound bank. Flute - Soundbank

Listen to “Aviary” from Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-Saens. Click on this icon – to hear the music. If you are unable to hear the music, go to you-tube and search for this or other flute music. Make sure your parent is present.

The Aviary - Camille Saint-Saens

The clarinet is made of wood or plastic. Sound is made by the vibrating of the reed – which is a piece of cane that is fastened to the mouthpiece. It has a full, open and rich sound. The clarinet has a wide range of high and low notes. There are holes to cover and buttons to push to change the pitch.

Listen to the clarinet – as found in our textbooks. Clarinet Sound Bank Listen to “The Bee” – by Schubert The Bee - Schubert

The saxophone has a single reed plus holes to cover and buttons to push. It has a single reed like the clarinet but the body of a saxophone is made of brass – giving it a bright, rich sound. They come in four sizes: soprano, alto, tenor and baritone sax. The saxophone is usually not part of the orchestra but it usually is a big part of a jazz band.

Listen to B. B’s Blues - Saxophone

B.B's Blues

The oboe is similar to the clarinet in that it has holes to cover and buttons to push to change the pitch of the instrument. The big difference is that the oboe has a double reed which is the mouthpiece. The double reed vibrates when you blow into it. It has a nasal sound – much like when you pinch your nose to sing or talk. It is small – so the pitch is high.

*Experiment : Take a drinking straw and cut a rounded edge on one end and blow into it. This is very much like blowing into a double reed.

Listen to Serenata from Pulcinella by Stravinsky Serenata - Pulcinella by Stravinsky

The bassoon is much like an oboe only much larger. Because it is so much larger, the sound is a lot lower than the oboe. The reed fits on the end of curved metal pipe, called a ‘bocal’.

Listen to Sonata in F minor for bassoon by Telemann Bassoon Sonata - Telemann

Listen to the Quartet (4 instruments). Can you distinguish between the flute, clarinet, oboe and bassoon?

Quartet - Allegro Molto
