Week 5 Update with Mrs. Murphy
Hello everyone! I am excited to continue learning with you virtually this week! I have been trying my hand at cooking, since my baby is now just over a year old and eating many more solid foods! I made some delicious butternut squash mac and cheese this week! Have you been trying any new hobbies during your time at home?
This week we are exploring the music of New Zealand!
To find this week’s materials, click on Mrs. Murphy’s Website, find your grade level, and scroll down! Watch the introductory videos, and then choose 2-3 of the provided activities to explore the Music of New Zealand.
Email me and tell me about what you learned about the music of New Zealand this week! You can even send me a picture or a video clip of you interacting with the materials! Reach me at murphyc@issaquah.wednet.edu!
Don’t forget, if you finish this week’s activities and want to keep exploring music, you can find many more enrichment activities for all grades on my website. You also still have time to complete the Austin Otto Quaver Challenge mentioned above! You can even login to Quaver through Clever to access the Student Portal and explore countless music related games, compositions, and activities!
