Weekly Review

It was a busy week in music. Our second and fifth graders had performances. Congratulations to both grade levels!


First grade students watched, "Tubby the Tuba." It is about an unhappy tuba leaving an orchestra in order to search for his own melody. Next week we will continue to play the Orff instruments- the xylophones, the metallophones and the glockenspiels. 

Congratulations to our second grade students who put on a wonderful Memorial Day performance! They did a fabulous job singing and looked adorable in their patriotic attire. 

Third grade students are busy practicing for their recorder concert on Tuesday, June 8th. They should be practicing all the belt song that they have passed plus Skip to My Lou. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

Our fourth grade students are busy working on their compositions. We have so many creative and talented students. We can't wait to watch their performances next week. Each class will perform for a first or second grade class. 

Our fifth grade students were so excited to learn the Ukuleles this week. We learned four chords- C, G, a minor, and F and how to switch between the chords. Skip to My Lou was the first song we learned and the song helped us practice switching between two chords. We ended our Ukulele time with Jason Miraz's famous song, "I'm Yours." Here is Mrs. Burns class playing the chords:





We held our First Annual All Town Concert on Tuesday night. It was such a wonderful experience to hear the elementary, middle school, and high school chorus perform. There was even a house band which two of our former Memorial students are now part of. Thank you to the students who participated that night. It was a memorable experience. Here are some pictures of our time:





Have a wonderful long weekend!
