The first week of school, we will be reading Abiyoyo by Pete Seeger. It is a South African folktale about a boy and his father who, after being banished from town for making mischief, are welcomed back when they find a way to make the scary giant, Abiyoyo, disappear. In support of this unit, visit a music store with your child. Examine the ukuleles and other srting instruments. Point out percussion and wind instruments. Ask your child how these groups of instruments are different from string instruments. If your child is musical or a naturalist, they will really love connecting to our unit this way.
