K-2 students will have the opportunity to go on a music field
trip in late March! At the end of February, students will begin studying Sergei
Prokofiev's orchestral work, "Peter and the Wolf." Written in 1936,
"Peter and the Wolf" is a musical story about a boy named Peter and
his adventures with his cat, and a duck and a bird who live in the nearby
forest. One day a wolf comes near his house and chases Peter's animal friends.
Peter needs to think fast to outsmart the wolf and get his friends to safety!
In addition to learning the story itself, "Peter and the Wolf"
teaches students about the instruments of the orchestra and musical themes.
Each musical theme corresponds with a character in the story. At the end of
this unit, students have the opportunity to see the "Peter and the
Wolf" performance. The Eulenspiegel Puppets will be performing the show at
the end of March in West Liberty. See below for more detailed information
regarding this field trip.
