Kindergarten-4th Grade: Students in music classes are busily preparing for the upcoming Christmas Program which will take place on on December 19th at 7 pm. They are singing and memorizing their class songs, along with the all school songs. This week we will be focusing on learning the words, and we will be taking time in every class to talk about the significance behind the words they are singing to help put meaning and feeling into their performance. In between the hard work the students are doing for the Christmas Program, we are playing short music games, rhythm practice, and melodic exercises.
Orchestra: This week, students are preparing First Christmas March for the Christmas Program. They are taking their second playing test on measures 25-40, and will be playing in small groups to practice the difficult ensemble spots in the music.
