Freddie the Frog!

Freddie the Frog has become a regular guest in Kindergarten, First, and Second Grades. He has five different story books that help us to learn about different musical concepts. Last week, we read "Freddie the Frog and the Bass Clef Monster." In this adventure, Freddie has a nightmare that introduces him to the notes of the bass clef.

This week, we're following up with a matching game that you can play at home! Freddie's website offers games to accompany each book. So far this morning, the kindergartners have been amazing me with their ability to identify line notes and space notes as well as matching the notes on the staff!
