Date: 1st May 2025 @ 8:13am

In today’s lesson, we recapped the  Elements of Music PP, focusing on Tempo, tonality and instruments in the orchestra. Then, using the listening mats and stem sentences we listened and appraised - Train is A-Comin’.

Our focus questions were: How does it make you feel? What's the genre and style?

Where does this song fit with the world?

What time/era was the song made?

What’s the song about?

Instruments you can hear?

Afterwards, we discussed Harriet Tubman and started to learn to sing the song.
