This week in Music, Year 3 have been learning all about ballads. A ballad is a song that tells a story.
We listened to Space Oddity by David Bowie and thought about the story it was telling. Then, we created our own storyboards to show what we imagined was happening in the song. Our storyboards were amazing, full of creativity and brilliant ideas!
We also loved watching our very own ‘Major Tom’ in space, astronaut Chris Hadfield, as he sang Space Oddity on the International Space Station. (Apologies in advance if you don’t hear the end of it at home, we were very impressed!)
Help at home: Watch the video and discuss the story of Major Tom.
