This week the First Graders learned about aerophones -- instruments that make music with a vibrating column of air. Clarinets, trumpets, flutes and recorders are all in the aerophone family. To give the students a more direct understanding of how aerophones, every student got a slide whistle, which they painted this week. Next week we'll be using them as part of our warm up.As an added bonus the Los Angeles Jazz Society and LAUSD provided a jazz concert in the auditorium (see pictures above). Many thanks to Mrs. Oh and Mrs. Hutchinson for setting things up. All in all it was very musical day!
