Final Concert

The 6th grade Orchestra and 6th Grade Sinfonia will present their final concert Monday, May 10th at 7pm in the Awtrey Theatre.  The students have worked so hard to prepare a concert that is enteraining yet also evident of the skills they have learned this year.  I think you will be very surprised by their ability to communicate a message to you using only their instruments. 

There will be lights, video, pictures, singing, and yes playing!!!!  I look forward to seeing you there with your family,  friends, neighbors, and EVERYONE else to cheer them on!!! 
  • All students need to wear jeans and their orchestra polo. 
  • All Sinfonia students will perform in their Sinfonia t-shirt so make sure you bring that along with your polo.
  • All students need to arrive on stage by 6:30pm ready to tune! 
Lastly all students are expected to watch the 7th grade performance immediately following their performance.  If anyone needs to leave they need to let MC know prior to Monday night's performance.

6th Grade Method Book Project

Create a  Method Book project is due Thursday, May 7th by the end of the day. Remember that you must be colorful, neat, and creative.  Your songs need to be on either staff paper or blank paper---I WILL NOT ACCEPT LINED PAPER!

There is a link below for the instructions but 6th period remember that you must also write a biography on a composer either living or dead.  Each person in the group must do their own biography and it needs to be interesting with important details such as birth date, birth place, parents, how he/ she got into music, what were their musical contributions, and lastly how did their music impact the history of music.  These biographies do not have to be long but they must be interesting.

You will have class time on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday to work on these projects however we still have one piece left to learn for your concert on Monday.  If you need anything from MC just let me know.
