Week of 5/26-5/29

 I found this awesome website called Groove Pizza that I’d like you to check out. On this website, you can create beats using different percussion instruments. You can manipulate the rhythms and beats by using colors, shapes, and angles. Please make a beat that you enjoy. Once you’ve created a beat you are proud of, press share and press “download as audio”. Upload that file to the google form here. Watch Mrs. Lograsso’s tutorial for help here.

The San Francisco Orchestra has a very cool website where you can play games and learn about the orchestra. Mrs. Lograsso can give you a tutorial on how to explore the website here.
