One Bottle of Pop, All Parts

Introduction

London, England

This is a traditional round from England.  It is sung in 3 parts.

A little translation for you from the original English.

A bottle of pop is a bottle of soda.

To chuck muck is to throw garbage.

Fish and chips is a traditional dish in England of fried fish and french fries, which are called chips in England.  In England, most people eat fish and chips with vinegar.

Cheerio, chaps.

Introductions, Orientation and Review

Coral Reef

Grownups, please be sure to see my introduction page to learn more about me and how you can support your child in music class. Even if you’re not a musician!

This week, we are getting reconnected with each other and welcoming new friends. I’ll be establishing routines and expectations for our class, including a warmup song that we’ll sing each week at the beginning of class. We’ll also review rhythmic notes and even clap a few rhythms.

The song for this week is Little Sally Walker, which is a song we played last year, so it will also serve as a small review.

It’s a fun one to move to, as well.
