Here is the Incredibox composition game we looked at in class.

So when I leave, you're not alone And no matter where we are, we will never be that far 'Cause I will think of you as I go I'll think of you as I dream So when it's dark, you'll be with me. And no matter where we are, we can look up to the stars. And I will think of you as I dream. Oh, it's a long and winding road But you don't have to walk alone. 'Cause no matter where we are, I will keep you in my heart And I will think of you as I go. I'll think of you when I'm down When my heart is on the ground And I will never lose my way even if the skies are grey 'Cause I will think of you when I'm down Oh, it's a long and winding road But you don't have to walk alone. 'Cause no matter where we are, I will keep you in my heart And I will think of you as I go. Oh, it's a long and winding road But you don't have to walk alone. 'Cause no matter where we are, I will keep you in my heart And I will think of you as I go. This week we will begin learning to use the percussion instruments.
