Hi everybody!!!! Here I bring the task (megatask, I mean), for my bilingual students of 2B. You have to do a mind map with the web Popplet, with information about the Canary Islands. The task has five parts, so I reccomend you to start as soon as possible.
Hi everyone!! Here I get the new bilingual task about the Canarian Day. This time you will have to make a popplet with some requested information about this celebration, and the most commom traditions and costumes in the Canary Islands. Remember to read carefully the instructions before doing the task, and be sure you have all the information requested in the instructions. The deadline to send your popplet is on Sunday 9th, June, until 11:59 pm.
Good morning guys!!! Here I have a couple of friends who play in several music bands. Can you guess which music band does each one play? By the way, you have to recognize the instrument that each one plays. You have the different types of music bands in the text below.
- Rock band. It is usually a group of four or five people, with one or two electric guitars, a bass guitar, a drumkit and a singer. It also could have a keyboard.
- Brass band. It is a group of about twenty to thirty musicians with brass instruments and drums.
- Concert band. It is a group of about twenty to sixty people with woodwind, brass, drums and percussion instruments.
- Marching band. It is a group similar to a concert band, but instead of sitting down to play, musicians from a marching band play while walking (usually at football matches or in military parades).
And now listen to the people, and write the instrument each one plays, and the music band in which he or she plays. You have to write the requested information in a post to this entry.
Hi everybody!!!! Yerterday I came with some Fotobabbles made by my bilingual students, and today I bring a load of Thinglinks about the musical instruments. They are really interesting, and could help you to know more about your favorite musical instrument. Be sure you see all of them (click on the instrument name).
Good afternoon to you all, students of IES Guillermina Brito. Here I have the first Fotobabbles about the musical instruments. You should listen to them, because they all are really interesting. In a short time I'll be back with more and more "talking photos"... and other curious stuff related to Music!!!
Good morning to everyone!!! Who would like to play the keyboard in the computer for a while?
¡¡¡Buenos días a todos y a todas!!! ¿A quién le apetece tocar un ratito el teclado en el ordenador?
For sure that you all would like to try it and, who knows, maybe we will get a newborn musician among us.
Seguro que más de uno probará y, quién sabe, quizá hasta descubramos a un nuevo músico entre nosotros.
To play the keyboard, click on the image below.
Para tocar el teclado, hagan clic en la imagen que tienen debajo.
Regards, have a nice day, and be good.
Saludos, que pasen un buen día, y sean buenos.
Hi everybody!! Here I will explain the task you have to do. Please follow these instructions.
The first thing you have todos to choose one musical instrument, the one you like most, or the one whose sound you prefer.
When you have chosen the instrument, you have to look for a photo or an image of it, and download to your computer.
Look for some information in English about the instrument. It's up to you to select the information you consider important.
Now you have to use either the web fotobabble (if you want to record your voice and add it to the image) or the web thinglink (if you want to create an interactive image by adding hot spots to it, with sounds, links and explanations). When you have the decision, go to the web page and create an account.
Fotobabble: You have to upload the image, give a name to your "talking photo" and record the information you have found about your instrument. Of course, you have to record with your own voice, and of course you have to speak in English. When you have finished the task, send me the fotobabble to miscosasdemusica@gmail.com.
Thinglink: You have to upload the image, give a name to your interactive photo and create some hot spots on it. You have to give some information you have found about your instrument in each spot, and you can use text, or another image, or a sound, or a link, or everything. Of course, you have to write the information in English. When you have finished the task, send me the thinglink to miscosasdemusica@gmail.com.
The deadline to do this task is Friday, April 12th. So, start working right now!!!!
Hi guys!! Here you have a very useful resource to compose and create a lot of tunes!!!. It´s really easy, you just have to pick on a musical figure or rest, and put it over the staff. To go to the resource, click on the image below.
Hi there, 2B students from Guillermina Brito!! Here I bring you a simple task, related to the musical instruments. I've invited three of my friends (I've used the resource Voki to create them), and each one is going to introduce the instrument he or she plays. Your task is to guess which instrument plays each of my friends. Are you ready for the quiz?
You have to write the names of the three instruments in a post to this entry.
Remember to listen to each one carefully, and try to understand as many words as you can. Good luck!!
Hi there, guys!!! I've found this video while I was surfing the web, and... it's wonderful!!!!
Well, maybe "wonderful" is not the most appropriate word to define the video, but at least I think it's very fun and entertaining. So, YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT, GUYS!!!!
I hope you have enjoyed the video. And now, please, answer these two questions:
1. Did you know any of these musical instruments? Which of them?
2. Which of these instruments do you think is the most difficult to play? And the easiest? Why?
GLOSSARY:
Guys. A group of people of either sex. To surf the web. To search for something, or to watch some things, or simply to spend some time on the internet (the web). Appropriate. Proper, the best choice. At least. Expression used to say "at the minimum", "anyway" or similar.
Have a nice weekend, and don't forget to recognize this week's hidden musician!!!!!!
Be good!!
Hi everybody!!! 2B students, here you have the task I told you today. It's a simple frame about music values. You have to write the ten sentences in a comment to this post. Don't forget to write your name too!!!!

Hi guys!!! How are you today? I hope you're well, and ready enough to have a wekk of intense work. Here I have for you a very interesting resource to improve your auditive skills. To play the game, just click on the image below and enjoy!! (Note: you have to click "PLAY" to start playing).
¡¡Buenas tardes, chicos y chicas del Guillermina Brito!! Me encontré con este fantástico juego musical (está en el idioma de Shakespeare) y quiero compartirlo con todos ustedes. Consiste en ordenar las piezas del puzzle, pero con la peculiaridad de que tendremos que guiarnos únicamente de nuestra percepción auditiva para hacerlo. Al hacer clic en cada una de las piezas del puzzle se reproducirá un fragmento sonoro, y tras escucharlos todos deberán colocarlos en el orden correcto. Una vez que hayan colocado las piezas en orden, deben pulsar en el botón PLAY a la derecha para escuchar la secuencia completa. Para comprobar qué piezas estaban en el orden correcto y cuáles no, deben pulsar el botón REVEAL CORRECT ANSWERS. Por último, para pasar al siguiente puzzle, hagan clic abajo a la derecha en NEXT PUZZLE.
Para acceder a los puzzles, hagan clic en este enlace o en la imagen que tienen arriba a la derecha. ¿Les ha parecido interesante este recurso? ¿Les parece útil para mejorar la educación musical? ¿Por qué?
Hola a todos y a todas, queridos alumnos y apreciados visitantes de MuzzicStuff. Quiero dejarles por aquí el enlace a un piano en flash con el que podrán practicar las piezas musicales que estudiamos en clase de música. Además, podrán tocar las canciones que ya conocen e incluso improvisar alguna que otra melodía. Para acceder a este recurso, hagan clic en la imagen que tienen a continuación.
Pueden tocar el piano haciendo clic en cada nota, o bien pulsando las teclas de la "a" a la "k" en el teclado del ordenador. ¡¡Ánimo, alumnado de música del IES Guillermina Brito!! No duden en utilizarlo para practicar las piezas que estamos trabajando en clase.
Good morning, dear students!! How are you today? I hope you'll feel really fine. Here you have a simple musical game, very similar to a legendary and enjoying 80's game called "Arkanoid". What you have to do when playing the game is to hit the ball with the paddle, but in a somewhat strange way. You have to be very careful with the sound you hear, because it's going to indicate you where to put the paddle. The higher the level at which you are, the more notes (rectangles) you have to control.
To enter the game, click on the image below or click on this link.
That's all, folks, I hope you enjoy it a lot.
Glossary:
Simple musical game:Sencillo juego musical.
Legendary:Legendario.
Enjoying:Entretenido.
To hit:Golpear.
Paddle:Paleta.
A somewhat strange way:De una forma un tanto extraña.
To hear:Escuchar.
The higher the level..., the more notes...:Entre más elevado sea el nivel..., más notas...
Hi guys!!!! Here I bring you the task related to music notation (do you remember the theory you learned last Friday during the Music class? Ok then, you'll have to write the names of the following musical figures in Spanish, British English and American English, in the same order they are shown (en el mismo orden en que aparecen). These are the figures:
You must write the answer through a comment to this post. You can do that by clicking on the bottom (en la parte de abajo) of the post, on "Publicar un comentario en la entrada". The deadline to send me this task is Friday 4th (el último día para enviarme esta tarea es el viernes 4), after this day I won't accept your answers.
Finally, you'll have to find out the name of this musical figure, both in British and American English (tendrán que averiguar el nombre de esta figura musical en inglés británico y en inglés americano). I'll give you a clue (les voy a dar una pista): in Spanish, its name is "fusa".
Don't forget the deadline, folks!!!! Cheers, and be good.
Hi there!! I've been thinking about how to train my bilingual students in using English, and... I've found... on the web... THIS SUPER-DUPER-RESOURCE!!!!!!
It consists of a series of mysteries that have to be solved by you, dear students. So, of course, be ready for tomorrow's music class in English, because we're going to try to solve the first of these mysteries.
Here you have the link; by clicking on the image above (en la imagen de arriba) you'll go to the mysteries' page. I hope you enjoy this activity a lot, I'm sure Richard and me are going to enjoy it a lot!!
Have a nice afternoon and evening, dear students, and be good. See you tomorrow at school.
Hi there!! I've just decided to share (compartir) with you all a game I found last year, while I was looking for resources (recursos) to teach music in my classes. It's a kind of (una especie de) enjoying game in which you'll have to put the letters in the correct order to identify a musical instrument. You should read the definition carefully, because it would have a clue (pista). Good luck and... ¡¡¡enjoy this exciting game!!!
