Please use the Sign-Up Genius website to reserve your observation hours. Please check your email to everyone on how to use this wonderful resource. Observation hours must be completed before February 16th.
Since there might be several of you that attend the March for Life in Washington, D.C., I have located a few resources to get you on the "right note" with everyone. Remember to send me a "note" to let me know if you will be attending the March. I will leave necessary resources (syllabus and handouts) for you to obtain in the Education Department.
Please remember to bring your recorders to our classrooms during your observation hours, especially for our fourth and fifth grade classes.
BEFORE OUR FIRST CLASS PERIOD write your responses to the following questions below. You will need to join the blog site as a follower on the right hand of the page, where it states, "Join this site." You will also find an example to guide your thoughts on the questions...
1) Did your elementary school music experience include opportunities to address each standard?
2) Which standards were not covered in your elementary program?
3) Which standards were emphasized?
Also, there are couple of performances below to inspire you as you begin to work on your instruments...Choose your genre :)
The Baroque Soprano Recorder
