Week of January 23rd

Hi Folks:

Welcome to another week. Here are the assignments for this upcoming week.

Band:
There will be no after-school rehearsal this week as we are waiting on the arrival of our spring music. There SHOULD be rehearsal next Wednesday (Feb. 1) from 5-7pm in the band room. Please plan on attending. Please be practicing the music that we do have, and scales so that when we are together for rehearsal we aren't waiting for people to learn notes - Learn them individually and we will put it together as a group.

Guitar:
M: Rhythms (Whole - 8th Notes)
Tu: Notes of the Treble Clef
Wed: Review of entire introductory unit
Thurs: Quiz
Fri: Tuning


Have a great week.
