I am so pleased with the progress of the 5th grade band members! Most of them have gotten into a great practice routine and it really show in the amount of progress that they are making on their instruments. This week, we worked on adding our 6th and 7th notes on our instruments as well as counting and playing eighth note rhythms correctly.
Within a few weeks, we will begin working on our Holiday Concert music packets already. The 5th grade band will be presenting their first concert in conjunction with the District Elementary Orchestra on Dec. 17 at 7:00pm in the Performing Arts Center. Please mark this date on your calendar - you will not want to miss their first performance of their instrumental music careers!
Please feel free to stop in and introduce yourselves to me during conferences next Monday. My conference schedule is posted in last week's blog entry. I look forward to meeting you!
Until next week, keep practicing.....
Mr. Hubers
