Beginning of the year Orff experiences for 3rd grade

In 3rd grade, the students first learned body percussion and the words to a song.  We then learned how to play it on the Orff instruments.  

 Here is Mrs. Burkett's 3rd grade class from Mill Road performing the body percussion and singing "Let's Sing a Song" (Music For Children Vol. I, Canon #1 on pg. 91 modified for 2 at an instrument, lyrics by Nichole Witman). 

Here is Mrs. Tuell's 3rd grade class performing "Let's Sing a Song" on the Orff instruments.
