September 17th
K-5th grades:
I have been really thrilled with how they have embraced our talking about Beethoven for the past two weeks. They have learned some interesting things about the man and have listened to some of his music. I have told them that they don't have to "like" his music, but I do ask that they listen at least once with respect. We will listen to many different types of music this year and different composers. Next week, we will finish with Beethoven and move on to the next composer in October.
We have also been working with basic rhythms . The quarter note and eighth note will be reviewed next week

MS Chorus:
Late this week I am introducing some new music to the Chorus... something that will be a bit more challenging for them. They have done well with the Christmas music thus far, but we are going to take a break and work on some pieces over the next few weeks that will be more of a challenge!
They continue to excel with Dona Nobis Pacem and are doing well singing it as a round. We will continue working on these.
Mrs. Durrell
