    What is Mrs. Cloutier's rule about playing instruments?

    • Play your instrument AS SOON AS YOU GET IT!

    • WAIT to play your instrument.

    • HIT your neighbor with your instrument.

    Correct Answer
    A. WAIT to play your instrument.
    Explanation
    Mrs. Cloutier's rule about playing instruments is to wait to play your instrument. This means that she expects her students to exercise patience and self-control before starting to play their instruments. This rule suggests that there is a specific time or condition that needs to be met before they can begin playing. It could be that Mrs. Cloutier wants her students to have some basic understanding or instruction before they start playing, or she may want them to wait until they are in a designated practice area. Regardless of the specific reason, the rule emphasizes the importance of waiting before playing the instrument.

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    When exercising or dancing in class, it is important to maintain a safe and respectful environment. Bumping into other people can cause injuries and disrupt the flow of the activity.

    What do we say when we clap an Eighth Note?

    • Tah

    • Ti-Ti

    • Shh

    Correct Answer
    A. Ti-Ti
    Explanation
    When we clap an Eighth Note, we say "Ti-Ti." This is because an Eighth Note is a musical note that lasts for half the duration of a Quarter Note. In music notation, it is represented by a filled-in note head with a single flag attached to the stem. Clapping "Ti-Ti" helps to emphasize the rhythm and timing of the Eighth Note.

    When doing a circle dance, do we pull our partners arms?

    • No

    • Yes

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    In a circle dance, we do not pull our partner's arms. Circle dances typically involve holding hands with the people next to us in the circle and moving together in a coordinated way. Pulling our partner's arms would not be a part of the dance and could potentially cause discomfort or injury.

  • 8. 

    What do we say when we clap a Half Note?

    • Tah

    • Tah-ah

    • Ti-Ti

    Correct Answer
    A. Tah-ah
    Explanation
    When we clap a Half Note, we say "Tah-ah" because the Half Note is held for two beats, and "Tah-ah" represents the duration of the note. The first "Tah" represents the first beat, and the "ah" represents the second beat, indicating that the note is held for the duration of two beats.

  • 9. 

    When doing a circle dance, do we squeeze our partners hands?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    In a circle dance, participants typically hold hands with the people next to them to form a connected circle. However, they do not squeeze their partners' hands. Squeezing implies applying pressure or tightening the grip, which is not a common practice in a circle dance. Therefore, the correct answer is no.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of the following instruments is a percussion instrument?

    • Flute

    • Violin

    • Drum

    • Piano

    Correct Answer
    A. Drum
    Explanation
     A drum is a percussion instrument, which is played by striking with hands, sticks, or mallets. The flute is a wind instrument, the violin is a string instrument, and while the piano can also be classified as a percussion instrument due to its hammers striking strings, it is more commonly referred to as a keyboard instrument in basic music education.
