    The song was Happy and it made us feel in a positive mood.

    Elijah – Firebird made me feel like I was in Jurassic Park
    Riley – It sounded like the start of a movie that I know
    Alice – At the start it was slow but as the tempo got quicker it made me feel happy

    Year 1 were all very excited about World Music Day. They enjoyed listening to Happy by Pharrell Williams and said it made them feel happy. Lois enjoyed watching the video and seeing all the different people dancing and enjoying the music. Charlie said the music made him feel happy and that he wanted to clap along to the words. Liliana said she wanted to wave and dance and it made her happy.
    We liked listening to the music by Stravinsky and watching the Firebird as the folk story was told through the music. Aryan thought the firebird was angry. Zac said he was cross. Sadie said he was fiery and in a temper.
    We think the firebird would have been huge like an eagle with big wings and he would have breathed out fire as he flew across the sky. Finnley thought he would have lit up the night sky as he flew around the castle.

    Sadie likes pop music. Lukas likes to listen to rappers. Ella likes listening to lots of different types of music. Neave and Imogen said their favourite was rock music. Aryan said he likes listening to guitars so he liked the country and westerm music. Jaxon said he liked listening to the piano. Jenny liked listening to the Jurrasic Park theme tune by John Williams. We listened to this in Year 1 because our topic is Dinosaurs this half term.
    We are loving our day and are making paper plate maracas this morning.

    Year 4 loved listening to the song Happy at the start of the assembly! It made us really excited about World Music Day! It made us feel really happy ourselves.
    When we listened to one of the Ten Pieces, we thought about how it was trying to convey the story of the Firebird. When the music got louder and faster, we thought it must be when Ivan rescues the firebird and the princess. We thought the firebird might look like a phoenix…..majestic and magical.
    We talked about the different types of music we like in year 4:
    Sebastian – Blues
    Harry W and Dexter – Heavy Metal
    Ellie – Pop
    Toby and Caleb – Rap
    Imogen – Pop and Rock

Isabel enjoys listening to JoJo Siwa and Reggie and Kyton enjoy listening to football themed songs.

    When we listened to The Firebird we were fascinated with how the music helped to create pictures in our mind.
    Elliot said he had lots of imaginary pictures in his head.
    Edward said he was picturing lots of red and gold.
    Matilda said she was picturing a bird like an eagle. She thought it was red with gold at the end of its wings and orange underneath. Like a phoenix!
