Due to imbalance between Band and Choir, it was decided that the Grade 5 classes will get a semester of Band and Choir and then swap half way through the year. This will allow all students to have a chance to explore and try different ways of music. This week Ms. Rachel’s class got their instruments!! Over the next few months, we will learn how to care of our instruments (Principled), create and maintain a practice schedule (Balanced), and play our new instruments (Risk-Takers). As your student is learning to play, help them celebrate the small victories and stay resilient and open-minded. Learning anything new takes patience and bravery- let’s encourage our new musicians!
