Happy Cinco De Mayo! 
I wish I could say we sang the folks songs of Mexico this week to help celebrate this important Mexican holiday, but instead, the kindergarten remained focused on the patriotic songs for the upcoming Patriotic Show, at the end of March. 

This week in music class, we reviewed the songs from last week, and added three more: 
  • I'm So Glad to Be Here
  • I Love America
  • March of the Wee Americans
In first grade, we also sang these songs because most of the kids know and love them from last year. Faces lit up when they heard the first notes of those songs! First graders also worked on some simple ukulele skills, including plucking the C and G strings in time to the music. We also started playing the C chord, and will continue to work on that next week.

Below are two documents we created this week. One is the notice that went home about upcoming music and arts events, and the other is a handout for students and their grownups about how to practice, so that they can learn better and more efficiently.
​
Have a great weekend!
