At Yorkswood Primary School during Key Stage 1 children listen carefully and respond physically to a wider range of music. They play musical instruments and sing a variety of songs, adding accompaniments and creating short compositions, with increasing confidence, imagination and control. They explore and enjoy how sounds and silence can create different moods and effects.

Each half term, the children learn a new song. In year 1 children will learn and use these songs:

Autumn One – Hey You!

Autumn Two – Rhythm In The Way We Walk and Banana Rap

Spring One – In The Groove

Spring Two – Round And Round

Summer One – Your Imagination

Summer Two – Reflect, Replay and Rewind
