What's up?

Hello,
Here is a short update for music 9. There is going to be a keyboard test Friday. We have started learning to play the black keys and will start our next piece Lean on me soon. Next week we will start our music history projects, start learning some Italian vocab and develop our listening skills. Lots to do. Keep up the good work.
Cheers

Wow is it exam time already

Hello all,
Sorry I have not been updating for a while. The second rotation of music students have been doing super, especially with all their breaks and disruptions. We have just about completed our third keyboard piece, "when the saints go marching in" and finished our third written test. After exams we will be doing our next keyboard test, our last class keyboard piece, "Lean on Me" and starting our projects. Updated marks for music will be sent home with report cards. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Good luck on exams.
Cheers
Ms. Hsu

Welcome to the 2nd rotation of music

Hello all,
Welcome to Music 9. I hope everyone enjoyed the snow day. We have completed our first performance on the keyboard and have started our first piece. This week we will have our first written test on Friday. It will be on everything we have covered recently, notes, treble clef, keyboard, rhythm, vocab, classroom rules. Next week we will have our first keyboard test and be working on increasing our music vocabulary.
Check back soon.
Cheers

Review Centres

This week is the beginning of a review for the Big final test next Wednesday. We are completing 7 different activity stations that cover numerous topics. It is an opportunity for students to ask questions, try hands on activities and review knowledge. The final test will be on everything that we have done this year. Thursday and Friday next week will be an opportunity for students to catch up anything they have missed before moving to Art. Have a great week.
Cheers
Ms. Hsu
