The Magic of Music - La Cucaracha

Catherine was back again bringing the magic of music to our classroom. This time we listened to music from Mexico. We marched around the classroom to the music. Some of the music was very fast and some of it was slow. We played percussion instruments along to the music. 
We learned about when songs change and we responded to the different parts of the songs by marching to the first part and then playing our instruments when the music changed. The music kept changing so we had great fun changing from marching to playing to marching again and again!
We learned the song La Cucaracha. It is all about a little cockroach! Catherine brought in her guitar Kasha and some Mexican hats called sombreros for us to wear! It was so much fun and we can't wait until Catherine comes back again.
