Week 14

Last week the kindergarten students all rehearsed boomwhackers. It was a massive undertaking but we got through it just fine. Special thanks to Ms. Pais, Mrs. Douglas, Mrs. Sperring, and Mrs. Ulrich for helping supervise the kids. The band and chorus are ready for the concert. Students that are not in band and chorus just need to wear Wildcat T-shirts and jeans. Everyone needs to be in the cafeteria by 6:30 pm.

Music Week 13

We are still getting ready for the concert on Dec. 13th. I am very pleased to annouce that the kindergarten students have made tremendous progress on the Boomwhackers. I can now point to them and they usually hit when they are supposed to hit. The recorder experiment with the 2nd and 3rd grade classes is going fairly well. I am working on a way to get some music to some of the students that want to practice for extra credit. The same is true for piano students in 4th and 5th grade.

Music Week 12

This was a short week. Some of the classes were allowed to do stations. I noticed a lot of the students are getting better at DDR.
