We Bee Makin' Music: Din, Dan, Don . . .
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011/04/din-dan-don.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Friday, April 1, 2011. Din, Dan, Don . . . I love to listen to French being spoken! I love all those impossible sounding vowels. I love all those silent letters at the ends of words . . . How does one ever learn to speak such a lyric language? Moreover, how can anyone learn to read it? Are all Zs silent or just the one in Rendezvous? And what about -et? Chevrolet, ballet, buffet, crochet, croquette, beret, Met Det (just kidding: May Day! Ah, but here we are:. Mrs Smith's Fourth Grade.

We Bee Makin' Music: March 2011
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. The thought occurs to me, is a blog a daily journal, or is it a collection of memories? Or what is the difference? In missing the last few days, I hope that I'm not behind, only slow! This week we've sung several rounds, my all time favorite being Are you sleeping, Brother John? I asked My Little Musical Bees this morning. One girl said maybe the eggs on the stove caught fire! That could happen at my house! Next step, find the words in French to Frere Jacque.

We Bee Makin' Music: When the feet hit the ground . . .
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011/04/when-feet-hit-ground.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Tuesday, April 12, 2011. When the feet hit the ground . . . Or should it be "when the fingers hit the keys? Either way, we've past the mid-point of the race (trimester) and are making steady progress. And *that* is how I managed to slip one of my old favorites, The Erie Canal. Into today's lesson. "All right, students, listen to this song and raise your hand when you think you can hear the eighth notes.". I wonder if I can find anything redeeming in Bill Grogan's Goat.

We Bee Makin' Music: Ding, Dong Bell . . . .
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011/03/ding-dong-bell.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Thursday, March 24, 2011. Ding, Dong Bell . . . . I love to listen to hand bell choirs. My sister-in-law's parents were in the bell choir in their congregation for years. For several years, Christmas Eve found me in their quaintly beautiful little chapel in St Anthony, Idaho. What a treat! So, We Bee Makin' Hand Bell Music. Needed five bells to play the melody, but Mary's Little Lamb. Sounded almost as good as the St Anthony Bell Choir - almost! How could we go from awesome to awful?

We Bee Makin' Music: April 2011
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Wednesday, April 20, 2011. Oh, for the days . . . . When I had a student teacher and all I had to think about was what I was going to be doing in music class the next day. Why, I even had enough time to think about what might Bee Happenin' next week! And if my Baby Bees, aka music students, lingered after class time was officially over, no big deal, the awesome Mrs D was large and in charge back in the regular old schoolroom. *big sigh*. But would I give this up for anything? I love ...

We Bee Makin' Music: May 2011
http://webeemakinmusic.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
We Bee Makin' Music. Sunday, May 22, 2011. We Bee Showin' Off. I can't believe that the end is not only in sight, but will be rushing past me in just two days! When I was a piano student, I hated recitals. Memorizing anything - - words or music - - is something not easy for me and when I do manage to get something "committed to memory," time will erode it. And quickly! So when Mr G suggested an end of the year celebration, just the word celebration was enough to convince me to give it a try.
