Practice competition off to a great start!

Several students turned in practice competition cards today and earned a piece of a candy and another card.  See the stats here:  Practice Competition

With the band concert one month away (December 3) students are busy in class preparing music for the concert.  7th graders continued to work on SmartMusic in class and played through all of “Christmas Celebration.”  8th graders are making a lot progress on “For Unto Us,” a selection from Handel’s Messiah.  They are also working on a song in 6/8 time called “We Saw Three Ships.”  The sixth graders have been working on dotted quarter notes in class.  For the December concert, they have been learning to play selections from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker.
