This week, the Grade 6 Band is working on the Concert Bb major scale which is on P. 42 of their red books. There will be a test on this on Monday, January 19.
The group is already off to a terrific start on our Kiwanis festival music. This year, the festival will be held during the last week of March but I will let you know the exact date and time when it comes available. We will be playing "Ayre and Dance" and "Marching Grenadiers".
In addition to practising these pieces of music, I've also asked them to practise number 70 in their red books. We will begin charting our progress on our Standard of Excellence Achievement Charts. These are found in the back of the red books, but I'll be providing the students with photocopies of these. There are certain exercises throughout the book that are designated with a picture of a medal. When a student is able to perform these for me, they will be able to check them off on their chart and I will keep track of them too. We will start tracking these exercises at number 70 starting on Thursday, January 15.
