Hey 4th Grade Friends!

Today is the last Wednesday Enrichment of the fall semester!

Since the structure of Wednesdays is going to be different for the rest of the year, I want you to take today to catch up on any music lessons you might have missed. If you have done every single lesson (AWESOME JOB!!!!) scroll down and find your favorite lesson to do again.

You can also look through the fall music residency lessons and choose one of those. It doesn't have to be your grade level! Have fun!!

Love,

Mrs. Davenport
