Seventh Grade - We are working on jingles! Every student wrote a jingle in class on Friday. If they did not finish their jingle it is homework over the weekend! Jingles will be presented on Monday. We will choose our favorite jingle and turn it into a commercial! Eighth Grade - We are working on composing our own 12 bar blues piece. Every student has a partner for this project. They will perform thier piece and accompany themselves on the guitar. We are also discussing Jazz musicians. Research projects are due on October 2. Chorus Class - Students should still be working on the county chorus audition piece. All students are starting to choreograph a piece of music for the entire chorus. They were broken into smaller groups and assigned measures to choreograph.
