5th Grade Music

Students are learning about ledger lines and the Grand Staff. We will continue to have quizzes and practice with notes in Treble and Bass Clef. We will also be learning about music of the Renaissance period and begin our winter musical The Nutcracker. 

The 5th and 6th Grade Musical is on Tuesday, Dec. 10th at 5:30. 

Students have been working hard to put together their 5th and 6th grade winter musical The Nutcracker over the past few months. We are looking forward to showcasing their work on Tuesday, Dec. 10th at 5:30 pm. Students need to arrive at the music room to prepare for the musical between 5:00-5:10pm.  Unlike in past years when students have worn their uniform to their concerts we are asking this year that they wear a costume for the musical. The instructions of what to wear are listed below. 

Mrs. Patawaran's class

Students are wearing khaki pants/skirts and a plain white, brown, tan, or black shirt. It may be a T-shirt, dress shirt or polo but it can't have any words or graphics on it. Students may wear black, brown, tan, or white dress shoes or gym shoes. If girls are wearing a skirt they must wear shorts or plain black, navy, brown or tan leggings or tights underneath. Socks should be black or white. 

Mrs. Popham's class

Students are wearing black or navy pants/skirts and a blue, red, green, or white shirt. It may be a T-shirt, dress shirt, or polo but it can't have any words or graphics on it. Students may wear black or white dress shoes or gym shoes. If girls are wearing a skirt they must wear shorts or plain black, navy, or white leggings or tights underneath. Socks are black or white.

If your student is a waiter/waitress then they should wear what they wear for formal days but with black, plaid, or navy pants/skirt. 

Students have their test over Unit 2 on the 26th and 27th of February. They also have their workbook due on these days. Students have had time to work on their workbook in class for about two months now.
