NEXT WEEK VIRTUAL TALENT SHOW
LET’S CELEBRATE the end of school WITH...
A Talent Show
During the week of May 18th, we will be holding an online talent show! Your assignment for music next week will be to share a talent that you have with us on the FlipGrid. This is something that you may need to practice for or create so I wanted to give you a week’s notice.
TALENT SHOW GUIDELINES
You can perform alone, or with someone else.
Your act can be music-related (singing, playing instruments, or dancing) or something else (gymnastics, magic tricks, art, memorize a story or poem, hula hooping, telling jokes, sports talent, science experiment, cooking, etc.)
It must be school appropriate
(Rule of thumb, if you need to ask, it probably isn’t appropriate for school.)
You MUST have your parent’s permission to show your talent!
Week 6: May 4th - May 10th
