January 21 - 25

Seventh Grade - We are creating rhythms using all of the notes and rests between and whole note and eighth notes.  We will be learning the pentatonic scale this week too. We will be combining our rhythms and the pentatonic scale to create a song.  We will have a written test on the notes and rests and their values on Tuesday Jan. 29th. 

We are writing rhythms on Tuesday in class, if they do not complete the assignment, it becomes homework.


Eighth Grade - We are preparing to write and finally play rhythms that we create using whole notes to sixteenth notes.  We will be using the rhythms to accompany ourselves when we write our calypso pieces.  We will be writing rhythms on Wednesday - if they are not completed in class they will be homework.  There will be a written test on Tuesday, Jan. 29th.

Chorus Class - We are working on sight singing as well as learning the rhythmic accomp. to our spring song.
