Hello everyone!
March has flown by! So many activities in the music classroom keep me busy that time flies by!
K/1: have been singing a lot and working on volume and tempo
2nd: using Lummi sticks to work on reading and playing rhythm
3rd: used Boomwhackers to start reading music on the staff and now are getting ready for the Barnes and Noble book fair! (see below)
4th: Recorders.....keep on practicing consistently and we are getting much better!
5th: harmony and Mass singing are our main topics right now
6-8: Concert prep! (see below)
Upcoming events:
7th grade band---Middle School Band festival on Friday, April 12th in Battle Ground
Last year was the first time that I took a band to this event and it is a great way for the students to interact with other conductors and students their age. This all day event has the students rehearsing for half a day, performing in front of judges pieces that we have been working on, and a concert to perform for their parents. Whew! It is a long day but a great one!
Prek-6:
Barnes and Noble book fair!
Sunday, April 14th
Come and see Prek-6 perform in a variety of ways: poems, plays, singing, and performing!
Middle School students:
Spring Concert---Thursday, April 25th at 2:15pm and 6:30pm
Look for a flyer to go home right when we get back from break that has more details.
Have a wonderful, blessed Easter and a great spring break! I look forward to seeing you again the second week of April!
Mrs. Miller
