India has two major classical forms of music - Carnatic Music, from the southern peninsula of India and Hindustani Music from the northern, eastern and central regions. They share the seven notes or swaras - Sa, Ri, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni. We talk about Raga and Tala - Melodies and Beats; and various instruments from India. Music has patterns and pattern awareness is linked to Math skills! Pattern Awareness is hidden in your activities as well - look out for a chance to use this skill when making the Ghungroos or adding the yellow strips to the Dhol!
