LESSONS DAY January 26th & 27th

On January 26th and 27th, Kindergarten, First, Second, and Fourth grades will have Lessons Day during their regularly scheduled music class.  That's when those children who take lessons on an instrument (or dance) have an opportunity to show their classmates the result of their hard work. During Lessons Day, each student's most important job--no matter whether s/he performs or not--is to be an excellent audience member. This performance is just for classmates, not parents.

If your child would like to perform, she or he needs to rehearse announcing the piece, playing it, and bowing afterwards. You could help by being an audience during rehearsal(s) at home.  The student should also bring the music for the piece to be performed, as well as the instrument to be played (except, of course, for piano).  If you'd like to store the instrument in the music studio that morning, that will be just fine.

First Grade and Mr. Saltz's and Ms. Scott's will have their opportunities during regular music class on Wednesday, January 26th. 

Second Grade, Kindergarten and Mr. Goodman's class will have theirs on Thursday the 27th.  Third Grade will have Lessons Day after their Folk Tales performance is over.
