SCHOOL YEAR 2017-18

ENDING OF THE COURSE

In music in this course I have learnt a lots of things of music like intervals, chords,...and we have done a lots of projects like the words cloud, rap, dum de dum, monologue... My favourite project has been the rap and the worst for my opinion has been anyother that require to sing or to speak in public.

In P.E. we studied questions like handball, types of speed, badminton,... My favourite thing of P.E. is when we do free game.

In English we have done boring things like study the verbs, studing grammar... I like English, but I don't like English lessons of High School.


In this course we've learnt a lots of things. In this course I think that in general I've worked a lot but I believe that I can improve not talking in the class and maybe pay more attention in all classes in general. I feel in general okay with my marks. I think that I can do better it, paying more attention than I do now (and it is a lot) and studying still more than I do now (that it's a lot too!).

TRADITIONAL SONG- HELLO HELLO. CAN YOU...?

In this project I worked with Álex. I didn't enjoy the project due to I hate sing.

DUM DE DUM

In this project we sang a song all together with hats. I haven't like this project because I didn't enjoy the song.

MONOLOGE

Hi! In this project we had to explain the life of a famous musician. I haven't like this project due to I think that it has been boring.

LYRICS

My button

is in a jacket of cotton

let's go to my hottel

to take a water bottle

I need 

to take my racket

first, I have to go to the market

to take a balls packet 

My button

is in a jacket of cotton

let's go to my hottel

to take a water bottle

I want to put light
in my life
´cause i'm bored to see the pillow
going out of the window

My button

is in a jacket of cotton

let's go to my hottel

to take a water bottle

I live in the Earth
and I need to breath
it is a paradise in my fridge
it looks like a beach.

2nd TERM

MELODY: Is an organized succession of musical tones that expresses a musical idea. Usually, it gives the main character of the music.

How is it made? By a succession of sounds, normally with different pitches and duration.

• MUSICAL PHRASES: Melodies are structures in sections called phrases (themes). These are separated by pauses-cadences.

HARMONY: Is the use of simultaneous pitches or chords. It is said to refer to the "vertical" aspect of music to distinguish fron the melodic lines, or the "horizontal" aspect.

 →CHORD: A group of notes played at once. How is it made? By overlapping 3 or more simultaneous sounds. How are they formed? Overlapping 3rd intervals over a bass note call ROOT NOTE. 

→TRIAD: Is the simplest chord that Harmony can use. What is it? A group of 3 notes having a specific construction and relationship to one another. Where are they constructed? On consecutive spaces. Each member of the triad is separated by an interval of third.

• Of what is composed the triad?  ⇰ ROOT NOTE.

                                                               ⇰ THIRD.
                           
                                                               ⇰FIFTH.                    
INVERSIONS: In chords, you can order its notes in different ways, deppending on the note the you put in the bass. ALL CHORDS HAVE 3 POSITIONS: (you only have to change the positions of the notes and the intervals)

1. ROOT POSITION: When the bass is the root note.
2. FIRST INVERSION: When the 3rd is the bass note.
3. SECOND INVERSION: When the 5th is in the bass.

2nd TERM

INTERVALS:

An interval is the distance between two notes.

How to count an interval: Starting with the bottom note as 1, count up step by step until you reach the top note.

How to call intervals: With an ordinal numbers. Unison, second, third...

Intervals can be ascending ↑ (below) or descending ↓ (above).

Intervals can be melodics (2 notes are played one after other) or harmonics (2 notes are played at the same time).

Our scale (from C to C') is made up of 5 tones and 2 semitones.

1st TERM

In the classes of music we do a lots of cool things, like:



-WORKS: In this term we have done some works:

• The first project was to introduce ourselves and play a song. We had fun because we were doing it alone, just with Ana' s help→VIDEO

• Then, we did a work of the song The Syncopated Clock by Leroy Anderson. This project was related to the qualities of the sound: duration. I think that it was very funny because we took photos of clocks in our houses→VIDEO

                      THIS IS LEROY→  
                                                       

                                                           

• We worked in a project called the word cloud. We wrote the words that we learned in class to make a figure related to music. This is our ended work:

-VIDEOS: We have watched videos related to music, for example:

• A video about a man that enter in a anechoic chamber. Can silence actually drive you crazy? Tell me what do you think about it! I think that it is so rare!→VIDEO

• Actually we are watching a video about a deaf woman, Evelyn Glennie. Do you think that everyone can hear? Give me your opinions! I think that it' s amazing and it' s an example of superation→VIDEO

                                                          


-VOCABULARY: We have learnt a lots of new words, like:

• SPREAD: The same to travel or move. It refered when the sound travel by the waves.

• TUNE: Prepare the instruments for play them, with the tunning fork.

• STAFF OR STAVE: It is a group of 5 lines and 4 spaces to write the notes on.

                                                   

• TIED: It joins the notes which are next to each other and which have the same pitch or sound.

                                                                 

• REST: They represent the duration of the absence of sound. They correspond in name and duration with notes values.
