Planetarium show yr 5 !!!

Last Wednesday the whole of year 5 experienced the chance to see the solar system from inside a blow up planetarium. When we first entered the music hall, we played a game where we had to get balls into the correct basket by tilting the parachute. After that, we entered the planetarium and travelled through space visiting neighbouring planets and learning many new and wonderful facts. To finish off we went on a roller coaster through the rings of Saturn! When this finished we went out to break, still talking about all that we had just experienced.

Musical compositions

This term in music, we were focusing in on space music because of Tim Peake's space mission. We were working on our composition in groups of around 3-6. To get the idea of what space music sounds like, we listened to some pieces that people made over 90 years ago! After that, we set of in our groups and gathered the instruments subsequently making our graphic scores.

Every group had a piano/keyboard and in my group, we had a piano, which Kevin played. I played the African drum along with Jack; Aaron played the 'hi hats' and tinkling bells ; Ryan R played the drums and Ryan S played the glockenspiel. And after we did that, everyone recorded their composition to show the rest of the class.

When we had shown the class, we had a go on garage band; a  game with virtual instruments of your

 choice!

The Exsultet (My version)

The Exsultet (My version)

Sing! Rejoice O Israel, your Redeemer has ransomed your souls. Give praise to the King for his light guided you out of darkness . For you are a chosen generation and by his grace you have been given salvation .Exult your saviour O Mother Earth for his boundless love and eternal life weeded Heaven and Earth.

For the bondage of sin held you captive and the chains of death forced you to work under a yoke. Satan caused you all this pain but I ,the Lord has come to release you By my resurrection power you have been reborn by the Holy Spirit into God's family. Sin imprisoned you and locked you up, but I ,the key set you free. You are unworthy of my grace but my father loves you so those who serve him are his children .

Glory to God in the highest! Resound the heavens with his praises. For you were lost in the darkness of sin. You are my flock who were stolen from me .Remember , I care for you and that is why my father is willing to give eternal life.

But all he wanted me to write is:

Light shines from the cave as he rises . Illuminating the the world. Jesus has overcome!

Heaven resounds with joy. Zion's King returns! Praise he who enters the gates.

Alleluia to the King of kings who brings peace to all men. Praise him for his boundless love that is shown through his death.
