Christmas Programs

Well Christmas break is almost over and that means it's almost the end of the 2nd 9 weeks.  The 2nd 9 weeks is a busy month for the music classroom.  We have Veterans Day and Christmas programs back to back.  All students did a fabulous job this year!
PK students did wonderful with their showcase songs: 5 Little Christmas Trees and Little Snowflake. They are always adorable!
Kindergarten students rocked their reindeer songs. The reindeer pokey was fabulous and one of my favorites this year!
1st grade looked so comfy in their PJs. We had a blast "Jammin' in our Jammies". 
2nd grade sang their snow songs, but we haven't had much snow yet.  (who doesn't love a snow day or 2?)
3rd and 4th grade did great working together to perform "How the Penguins Saved Christmas".  I'm sure my 3rd grade kazoo students enjoyed playing those kazoos for their parents over break.  The Holden 3rd grade students did fabulous with their sing a long; phew Deck the Halls is a hard song. 

Our performances aren't over for the year, because selected 4th grade students should get to participate in an all county 4th grade showcase concert.  We will also have spring concerts.  Hopefully Holden's spring concert will be on our brand new stage!

We will take a little break from performances in January and work on some music objectives, such as new music center activities, pokemon rhythms, and lots of fun with our new Quaver series.
