Sharing a Love for Music
Today, Sarah, a middle school student at Iroquois, visited the third grade classroom and played her violin. Musical selections included concert pieces as well as many favorite children’s song, including “Pop! Goes the Weasel” and “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.” The children had fun guessing the titles and singing along with the songs they knew. Sarah answered many questions about her violin and learning to play an instrument. The third graders are getting ready to celebrate Laura Ingalls Wilder’s birthday Thursday, and it was a great experience to hear songs as they would have been played on Pa’s fiddle.
