To integrate what they learned in science with music, the students created a song to go with the facts that they learned about the rainforest. The students used Sibelius’s Groovy Jungle to create their music. I divided them into five groups of 3-4 students. They each launched Groovy Jungle from one of the five computers in the music classroom. Together, they decided on and typed in facts about the rainforest. They used melody butterflies, bass line bushes, chord cobwebs, arpeggio flies, rhythm trees, and bonus animals to create wonderful musical works. When they were finished, they presented their works to the rest of the class. They recited their facts and explained why they used the musical elements of melody, rhythm, chords, arpeggios, bass lines, and especially the bonus animals in certain places of the songs. When you view and listen to the pieces, you will see that many of the students coordinated their music with their facts. I hope that you enjoy their wonderful musical creations!

They learned to read and perform the notes B A and G on the treble clef staff through singing, performing on the recorder, and performing on the Korg X50 keyboards that we used when we visited the grades 4-8 music lab. In this project, they were given guidelines on how to create a background accompaniment to the B A and G improv that they would record in GarageBand. They were given a style and created a four-measure intro, an eight-measure accompaniment, and then a four-measure coda. As you can hear, they improvised during the eight-measure accompaniment. This 3rd grader decided to use a synthesizer sound as his improv instrument. Please remember that this is a 3rd grader. He did a nice job.
