Ralph loves Bob Bickerton!



On the 6th of May, Bob Bickerton came to Pine Hill School to show us lots of cool musical instruments. Ralph was very impressed that Bob has been playing music for 33 years!

Bob had so many instruments. He played a:
Milk bottle
Panpipe
Koauau
Whistle
Flute
Bagpipes
Harmonica
Accordian
Kazoo
Guitar
Violin
Harp
Drum

Ralph loved the harp the best. He thought it was beautiful and that the music was very romantic!




Ralph learned something new about music. He now knows that long things tend to sound low and short things tend to sound high. Bob Bickerton told Ralph this was called "pitch".

Ralph can't wait to learn how to play some different instruments with the Room 1 children this term!
