This week, the primary school students had the privilege of visiting the Carolina Music Museum. Although only in existence for less than a year, this new museum houses one of the most rare collections of English and American keyboard instruments in the country! 
Here is a few pics of our Halloween fun in music class! 
To help the kindergarteners learn about instrument families and where they are placed in the orchestra, we decided to build one of our own! 
The kindergarteners had fun learning about quarter and eighth notes with candy pumpkins! 
Learning note values isn’t scary with our cute monster friends to help! 
Learning how to build major and minor triads is no easy task! Luckily, “Milk’s Favorite Cookie” is also a great music theory companion!
The music interval of a third is the basis for a triad. A triad is made of two thirds stacked on top of each other. The trick is finding the right combination of thirds to give you the sound you are looking for.
We used chocolate Oreos to represent minor chords and the double-stuffed Oreos for major triads. Using our special Oreo code, we were able to make major, minor, diminished, and augmented triads. As you can see, the results were delicious!
