During the autumn term the children in Year 1 have been learning to play the glockenspiel.

In this unit we focused on exploring and developing playing skills as well as introducing         the language of music.

We initially introduced the notes E and D and the children identified where these were on the instrument and then took turns to play them in time with the music.

Throughout the term we progressed to learning notes C, D, E, F and used these whilst playing the glockenspiels to a range of music.
