Free Tchaikovsky SQUILT lesson and Notebooking Download
This week we are listening to a wonderful little piece by Tchaikovsky.
It's a perfect piece for SQUILT - short, sweet, and memorable.
Super Quiet UnInterrupted Listening Time is a perfect way to incorporate music appreciation into your homeschool day. I've tried to make this lesson easy for ANYONE to teach. All you need is an internet connection and some basic school supplies.
Tchaikovsky wrote a series of 12 character pieces - one for each month of the year. November's piece is entitled "Troika", and it's a piece you'll be humming after you hear it a few times.
This piece was originally written for solo piano, but it has also been arranged for orchestra:

This is wonderful, Mary! Thank you!
Happy Halloween to your Family
This will be in the round-up on Friday! Awesome freebie, Mary.
We are using the Volume 1: Baroque Era because we're studying SOTW3 as a spine during the Baroque time period. Pandora thru the blue-ray player somehow brings Baroque music into our living room while we work thru our daily homeschool schedule. And, conveniently, we can choose the classical music station in the van while our other favorite stations are raising money to pay the bills each year. I was able to explain why I guessed correctly a Bach piece the other day using the terms from the SQUILT lesson.
WONDERFUL!!! Sharing this! :)
Mary,
I am having trouble with the link - it is saying that Adobe is blocked by the site??? Am I doing this wrong? Thanks for the help :D

Thank you for this beautiful SQUILT! We will use it this month!
