It's finally AUTUMN!!

 September 24, 2021


  Hi everyone!!   We have had a great week of school and the weather the past two days has really helped! 

Elementary: 

        The music room finally got a VIBE board... and I've been learning how to use it!  IT is going to make a big difference in the class going forward.  In the next few weeks, I will be letting you know about how to access some games online for the kids to play to continue to strengthen skills they are learning in class.  They are doing well with their dynamics, tempo etc...    It's an exciting time!!! 

6th grade and 7-8th grade :

        The kids has been finishing up the Classical and Romantic era's in music.  We have been listening to alot of famous composers, from Bach to Brahms.   ON Thursday, we try to focus on Music Appreciation and have been listening to more modern compositions like Movie soundtracks by John Williams, James Horner etc..  and then this week, we talked about the music of Broadway!!  I've thoroughly enjoyed every second!  

       I am putting some extra credit work on TEAMS this weekend.  Overall, I am very proud of their grades, but I know that the kids are wanting to "beef them up" a bit.  They are such great kids!!!   

      Have a great weekend.. and enjoy the weather!!!  

Blessings~
