Kristin Andreassen - Crayola Doesn't Make A Color For Your Eyes


Just a cute and fun video!
About the previous post, (Toccata and Fugue by Bach), we're experiencing an ice storm and the power flickered before I could write anything! I'd better hurry and get the computer turned off...the previous video is demonstrating melodic contour. Melodic contour helps you visualize the pitches in a melody. It's something that our 3rd graders will be using soon as they work at their Star-Spangled Banner proficiency. 1st graders will be working with it, too, as they learn about long and short. I love how melodic contour can captivate the senses, much like this unforgettable piece of music history by J.S. Bach.
