What's happening in 3rd Grade Music?

With the excitement of Valentine's Day and the snow we've had, 3rd grade is also anxiously preparing for the upcoming MAP test which will take place in April.  Here is what we are doing in music to help them prepare!!!  Take a look.  This is a lesson in which we were comparing (alike) and contrasting (different) instruments and their families.  The students had to come to the Smart Board and tap on the random instrument selectors for each column and then answer accordingly to whatever instruments were randomly selected.

2nd Grade Fall Music Program

2nd Grade is preparing for their upcoming music program which will take place on Thursday, Oct. 13th at 2:30 and 7:00.  Students can wear cowboy/girl clothing (overalls, boots, plaid shirts, skirts, bandanas, etc.) and accessories (braids, pigtails, etc. - please NO hats)!  Students should arrive no later than 6:45 for the evening performance.  They will need to report to their homeroom.  Feel free to call if you have any questions or concerns.

P.S. If your student has not already sent in $2 for their bandana, please do so quickly.  They need to turn their money into their classroom teacher!
