Three Part Round

Today in Mrs. Childer's class, the fifth grade students worked on a three part canon called "If the people live their lives."  It is a gorgeous melody in a minor key.  The students love it.  We began by singing it together as a class.  The next class I sang the second part of the canon while they did the first. During today's class, they performed it as a two and three part canon.  I loved hearing their response as they finished.  Most amazing was the fact that they were all able to hold their parts and to keep balanced in their parts.  They are such a joy to teach!!

Here is a snapshot of what they were able to do in the three part round:
