🎸Notes about the Music Classes🥁
The new trimester is off to a fabulous start! I am so excited about all my new classes! Music 6 has started out rocking the Rhythm Unit. The Digital Music Lab has shown a strong ability to improvise melodies and rhythms. The Vocal Power class is full of terrific singers! Show Choir and 7/8 Singers did not meet this week, because so many of them are in the musical. Next week, Show Choir will still be on the morning schedule, because I have a meeting after school. 7/8 Singers will be back after school on Thursday!
