The One Forgiven Chance!

Thank you the one lone 6th grade flute player for the title of today's blog :)

The title came from the fact that only 1 of the 27 kids in band turned in their first practice card of the year (Due today). They should have all failed and all gotten a detention! I forgave them all and this is the ONE forgiven chance! Every Wednesday 50 minutes are due, or else they get a check and a failing grade. I am pretty sure that we will all be turning in their cards next week!
Things to make sure to talk to your children about-band wise: A practice card must be turned in every week, signed by the parent, EVEN if they did not practice! Part of my masters degree is the documentation of practice cards. Thanks! There is a TEST next week (Wednesday) on the Bb concert scale. Don't know what that means? ASK ME!

Band has ALMOST chosen their instruments! See you this Friday night (September 11) at beginning band night at St. Luke. Questions? Call me at school! They had an assignment- in class- most of them finished. Not finished? We still have tomorrows class!!

3rd grade had a music Symbols matching game. We got to color with pretty crayons and colored pencils! We will finish it next week.

8th graders! I can't believe how many of you wanted to play bells! WHY didn't you come last year!!! anyway, welcome to the newbies... dive in!

And I am out............
