All About Air- Spring Term 2015

Image
I must confess, the Spring term brings forth my favourite theme: All about Air. We'll be exploring the melodies of bird songs, to the exquisite sounds of Arias. Delving into the natural symphony of wind and birds, we'll also explore wind and percussion instruments like ocarinas, bird water whistles, and the rhythmic beat reminiscent of woodpeckers. Woodpecker Get ready for some hands-on fun! In the coming sessions, we'll be crafting instruments using our favourite vegetables (carrots and broccoli) and immersing ourselves in a delightful Sound Story featuring the book: "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." Additionally, we'll dive into the world of simple sound-making using everyday materials, including straws.

Instruments showcased during the lessons are available for sale...

Welcome to Les petits troubadours (first post 2014): Intro

Image
Welcome to Les Petits Troubadours Edublog! Hello, I'm Lorena Zurbano, and I currently teach Music and Multi-sensory sessions to children aged between 6 months and 4 years at Les Petits Heaven Maternelle in Lambeth, South West London. Additionally, I work as a freelance Spanish tutor (you can explore my other edublog here). Through this Edublog, I aim to keep parents informed about my work at the nursery and provide everyone with the opportunity to share their thoughts through comments. I'd like to note that you won't find any pictures of children on my blog. Its purpose is to serve as a platform for interaction with parents who are interested in the benefits of music for children's general development and well-being. In this space, I'll be sharing details about my Music kit and highlighting some of my favourite songs, such as Un Bosque Encantado . You can easily find everything I use online, except for my beloved cello! I hope this blog becomes a valuable resource...
