For the past seven weeks, our Year 4 students have been on an exciting musical adventure, learning how to play the trumpet! They started by discovering the different parts of this amazing instrument and understanding how each part works together to make music.
The children then moved on to learning the notes, which was a fun and challenging part of their journey. They practiced how to position their fingers and control their breath to hit the right notes. Everyone was excited when they finally made their first sounds on the trumpet!
As their skills grew, the students began playing short pieces of music. It was incredible to see their progress as they learned to read music and perform simple melodies. Each week, they became more confident and enthusiastic about playing.
The highlight of their trumpet journey was preparing for a final performance. Using all the knowledge and skills they had gained, the children worked hard to perfect their rendition of “Jingle Bells.” They practiced diligently, and their hard work paid off with a fantastic performance that made everyone proud.
Our Year 4 students learned a lot during these seven weeks, from the basics of the trumpet to performing a full piece of music. Their final performance was a wonderful celebration of their dedication and newfound musical talents. We are so proud of their achievements and look forward to more musical adventures in the future!
