Week #13: Concert information was sent home!

Dear 5th grade Orchestra, 

As you all know, we have our holiday sing- along concerts coming up soon. This week you should have received a green sheet with all of the information on it. Please read it over again with your parents. Like I mentioned in class, it is very unlikely that you will have your Music T-shirts by the concert date. If you DO get them, then you are to wear them with nice dark jeans or black pants. If not, then wear nice school clothes or dress up for the spirit dress up day (this only applies to some schools). 

For our concert we will be playing the following songs: (PLEASE NOTE: Wade Thomas, I changed one of the songs AND I also changed the way we are playing them. Wade Thomas class will get a sheet on Wednesday with all of the information on it)

For our concert: The first song is Twinkle Twinkle. We will play the first two lines together, then groups will play, then we will play the last two lines together.
