The harpsichord sounds different than the piano because the strings are plucked. And in the piano the strings are struck. The harpsichord and the piano may look the same but they sound quite different.
Today we learnt some chords. A chord is 2 or more notes played together (normally three). We practised the chords on a piano and played them to a partner, who had to guess what chords we were playing. We learnt some of these chords: C,F,G Am, F, G G, C, D Em, C, D I also learnt that the MINORS sound more dull and the MAJORS sound more high pitched.
Rugby 7's Tournament (Tuesday) On Tuesday the year 7 and 8's (and a couple year 6's) will be attending the Rugby 7's tournament on Tuesday. - Good Luck! Fun Run (Friday) On Friday is the whole school Fun Run. We each got handed out a sponsorship booklet and we had to raise as much money as we could for the event. After the fun raising we get to choose a prize. Some of us are still fundraising and at the moment I have funraised $55.70. There is going to be a dress up theme for the fun run but we haven't decided yet! (I hope it's rainbow!)
Welcome back from the two week holiday! I didn't do that much in the holiday. I had a winter reading challenge where we had to read every day and our name would go in the draw to win a prize! Did you do anything exciting in the holidays? Tell me about it by writing a comment!
