Musical Explorers Training
We will have a substitute this Friday morning so I can attend Musical Explorers Training. Musical Explorers is a year-round program where the Savannah Music Festival partners with Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute. This program builds basic music skills in the classroom as children learn songs from different cultures, reflect on their own communities, and develop listening and singing skills. During the 2016-17 season, students explore various music styles including American Brass Quintet Music, Old-Time Music, Zydeco, Music of India, German Art Song, and Cuban Salsa Music, embarking on a musical journey through the cultures found in and around the Southeastern United States. Students interact with the professional musicians featured in the program during culminating concerts each semester. Take a look at the Musical Explorers poster which features our very own Nahiem!
SMOOTHIES!
When I return to school Friday afternoon I'd like to have students use the new blender that we received through Donors Choose to make healthy smoothies. I'd like to have students bring in the ingredients on Wednesday and Thursday so that we will have them prepared to use on Friday. Here is the link to SignUPGenius. Please donate if you are able.
