Hello my fabulous WOHE Musicians & Families!!
What a crazy time we are navigating through right now!! In this time of uncertainty I think it’s important to make sure we continue to make time to be creative and enjoy beautiful art and music together. My goal is to provide some musical activities for all ages that you can do at home during these days of family togetherness and bonding. Music has a way of uniting people together so let's take something that is already beautiful and make it a family memory. Pick whichever activities interest you the most! I will regularly be updating, adding, etc. to these lists of activities (via the multiple tabs up top on this blog homepage). Feel free to choose more than one activity, as many as you'd like, but don’t overwhelm yourself. Please make sure you are choosing activities that are grade and age level appropriate. If you have brothers and sisters at home, it might be fun to do these activities together! :)
Some of these activities are technology based and others are non-tech based. I will try to update this list as best as I can while we go through this adventure together. I would LOVE to see any pictures and/or videos of your music making. If you send me an email or message, I will always send you a message back as soon as I am able to! I might even be inclined to make you a WOHE Facebook star :), with parents permission of course :)!! You can email any photos and/or videos to erinkuchta@willardschools.net. Be looking for announcements, lists, information to come within the next few days regarding all of these wonderful activities and resources that have already been added and will soon be added to this blog!!
Finally, be sure you are following me on this blog as well as my FB page along with our school FB page and website as most of my communication runs through these social media venues. Please navigate through the page tabs on this blog homepage above to see all of the wonderful resources currently in place and the ones soon to come (in progress)!!! This homepage will be your musical playground over the next many days to come and as well as the future beyond!!
VIP - PERFORMANCE UPDATES
- At this time, discussion is taking place as to next steps regarding the rescheduling of the Kindergarten musical, "Three Nanny Goats Gruff" which was originally scheduled to take place on Thursday, April 2nd. As soon as we have a plan in place, we will communicate that to our WOHE Family!!
- Kodaly of the Ozarks Honor Choir - Saturday performance April 18th. With a disappointed yet understanding heart, I inform you that this event has officially been canceled per recommendations of the CDC, the local, the state, and the national government with the mandatory restrictions that have now been put in place. This particular event will not be rescheduled, however, we are still working on trying to have the choir perform at WOHE's Fine Arts Literacy Night which at this time is still scheduled for Thursday, April 25th. Look for further announcements to come regarding this event.
Mrs. Kuchta
WOHE Music Teacher
Hi! I came upon a virtual classroom library of Mrs. Kuchta. Is that you? If so, I wanted to know if you would share your "This Land Is Your Land" link with me. I'd like to embed the video of that book/song in my virtual music classroom so kids don't have to leave the room to hear it. Instead I can create a new slide, link it, and share the book on the new slide as a video. Is that something you could send to me? Many thanks, Jennifer Baker TK-3, Capistrano Unified School District, CA
ReplyDeleteMs. Baker,
ReplyDeleteThe video I used for This Land Is Your Land was one I found on YouTube.
