Music - Ballads

This afternoon the children in Daffodils have been singing a ballad - Space Oddity by David Bowie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lEwLAfL2xQ). We looked at how the song is written with verses and choruses in preparation for writing our very own ballad. We then watched a cartoon of the story we need to write a song for.  Recounting the song, we used words such as soaring above the clouds, sparkling stars, happiness and success. Next week we will move onto thinking about the lyrics using these words!
