Went to Abigail's last music class for the term, finally revealing what they get up to with no parents there. Welcome song and all of the other kids chose "jumping" as their mode of welcome. Abi chose to twirl, the teacher chose to wiggle. Clapping and jumping to different sounds / pitches, teddy bears being high/low on a see saw depending on pitch. Crocodile puppet capturing birdie was fun for all, esp Pascale, and Arabella Miller with finger caterpillar was fun.
Little Arabella Miller
Found a hairy caterpillar
First it crawled upon her mother
Then upon her baby brother
All said: Arabella Miller
Take away that caterpiller
Puff the sock puppet allowed each child to sing at the end of class.
Pictures of frog and monkey were used to get the children reciting a rhythm to the beat, blow the words into your hands and clap the beats:
Frog frog frog frog
frog monkey frog frog etc
After the running around at Mort Bay Park Abi was ravenous and ate lots of mince and pasta (fed to her by Por Por). She also finished a box of rockmelon slices (about one third of a small rockmelon). Then a 1.5 hour nap and biscuits afterwards due to hunger, stuffed up the dinner appetite until 7pm when she was fed by her father. Then after some writing she had a bath and ate the second half of her dinner in order to qualify for dessert.
