Welcome to the Second Grade Page of FPE Music Class!
In Second Grade we do the skills we've done in First Grade, but "HARDER" versions. For example, we do a more complex hand-clap pattern with cross over moves, and we add harder words, or songs to the hand-clap patterns.

Stations - 2011
New in 2011 - We are starting stations. Stations are where teams of students practice the skills they have already learned in Music Class. There are six stations which the teams rotate through over two days. Below are some of the 2nd Grade Classes doing stations thisFall. Mrs. Krauss' class and Mrs. London's class are shown first.
Turn the Glasses Over - hand clap pattern
The whole idea of a hand clap pattern is to make your brain do more than one thing at a time. In this hand clalp pattern, you must keep your hands on the right pattern, keep your hands at the same place as everyone else in the class, AND be able to say the rhyme at the same time. It's complicated! Soon we will have video of each class doing the "Turn the Glasses Over." Note: I have uploaded two video clips here, and for some reason they are not showing on my computer. Maybe they will appear later. I am in contact with the Weebly people about it.
