Music Dept
Dear NES families,
December is an exciting music month. Our 4th graders are singing at the
Festival of Lights on Dec 3rd at 1pm in The Towers
.
They are working hard on their band music and chorus music. Fourth grade will begin bucket drumming this month! The 3rd graders are getting their recorders and will begin learning our first song, “Hot Cross Buns”. The 2nd graders are going to begin learning how to play the xylophones and glockenspiels. The 1st graders and Kindergartners have been working on reading quarter notes (ta), eighth notes (titi) and quarter rests (shh). They have been practicing saying and drawing them and will be working on writing their own songs! Preschool has been enjoying singing songs together. Every week there is a new instrument for the students to see, “Instrument of the Week”.
Wishing you a happy and healthy Holiday and New Year
Molly Hammell
