Open House 2017

The new school year is off to a wonderful start.  I am only sad that with having 42 classes, the rotation takes 7 days now.  So, needless to say, although I have quality time with them when I have each class, it takes 9 days before I see them again.  Here are a few grade level pictures and videos of what our busy musicians have been doing this first month of school.  This first video is Ms. Johnson's 5th Grade class.  They are singing in a two part round adding 3 part accompaniment and ribbons.

The second video is Ms. Farnell's 4th grade class sharing their song from India: Shri Ram, jai Ram. This unit was a combination of learning about instruments and performers from India, sing and playing an accompaniment in the style of Middle Eastern music,  along with an Art lesson of Henna from Mrs. Detrich's art class.

Stay tuned for more musical moments this year.
