Our Weekly Info | The Buzzword for this week was FORTE and it means a LOUD sound. Congratulations to Macy (3), Graysen (2), Willow (2), Lola (2), Johana (2), and Chloe (2) for playing the Buzzword game this week!! Check the Buzzword board for next week's word...looking forward to playing this game and watching your musical vocabularies grow every week!!! We began celebrating out very first Composer of the Month, Antonin Dvorak as we listened to his music and learn facts about his life each class. A special Thank You to: Lola (2), Brynn (K), Hope (4), Alexander (K), Ben (1), Merritt (1), Clemens (2), and Paloma (2) for being our first music detectives of the year!! You can see the facts that they learned about Mr. Dvorak on display outside the music room or on the home page of this website :) 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! |
General and Performance Music
In the Performance Music world, this was the first week of Instrumental Lessons four our brand new Fourth Grade Beginning Band Students!! I was sooo excited to see everyone happy and prepared for their first lessons! Fourth Graders may now begin practicing their instruments and are encouraged to fill out and return their practice sheet at their lesson next week. Fifth and Sixth Graders will begin their lessons on Monday morning! I can't wait to get our band back up and running!!
