Super Special Music Days!! | Boy was this past week filled with some super special music events!!! There was fun and learning all over the place, even outside of Amagansett School!! |
Our Weekly Info..... | The Buzzword last week was CODA and it means: "to show a passage of music ending." Thank you to Chloe (1), Isabelle (2), Macy (2), and Noelly (2) who all participated in this week's challenge!! Keep up the GREAT work and enjoy your prizes :) The new Buzzword is SONATA. Do you know what that word's musical definition is? Can you look it up? Join the fun by completing this week's Buzzword Challenge!! We continue to salute this month's "Maestro of the Month" Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as we listen to his music and learn facts about his life each class. Check your child's go home folder for this month's composer fact sheet as well as the directions for how to become a "music detective" and have their work featured on the bulletin board outside the music classroom and on the Music Website! |

The Performance Music classes have a lot going on, too. Both Beginning and Concert Band have received new music and are starting to prepare for the Spring Concert. Play Along recordings of some of the selections are available for students to begin practicing with. You can find all sorts of important information about the Band Programs HERE. The music schedule has also been adjusted to allow for NYSSMA lessons to begin. Check out the new schedule here and be sure to mark your child's new lesson date and time on your family calendar. You can also visit the Festivals Page for more information about NYSSMA as well as play along and sing along tracks to help your child practice for this prestigious event :)
