Chrome Music Lab

Have you seen what the Chrome Music Lab has to offer? There are so many fun games where students can experiment with rhythm, pitch, timbre, and so much more! I tried it out with one of my Kindergarten classes and they had a blast. I don't have a class set of iPads so I put them in groups of 3 and it worked really well. I will definitely be utilizing this site again soon!

Kahoot!

Have you heard of Kahoot? It is an interactive online quiz website where you can create and take quizzes on various topics. Our 4th and 5th graders have been studying about John Williams this month and we used Kahoot! to review all of the information we had learned about him.

The students got into groups and worked together to answer the questions of the quiz on an iPad. They enjoyed being able to come up with team names and see their scores up on the board as they played the game. It was a great way for me to assess their knowledge and they had so much fun in the process! We will definitely be doing this again. :)

Here are a few pictures of them in action...

Our wonderful PTO got iPads for Music, Art, P.E., and the Media Center.  My mind is already racing with all kinds of ways that I can use it!   I know the students will be so excited!  Thank you HSES PTO!  :)
