First, I would like to say, that if you have had trouble with the blog, I apologize. I think I have it working now. Unfortunately, I lost some of the awesome posts I wrote earlier in the year about what we have been doing in music. I finally had some time over spring break to fix the bugs, and I am back up and running! I can't wait to share the fun things we have been doing and the great events that are coming up this spring.
March is Music in our Schools Month, so I am pumped to celebrate and get the word out about the wonderful advocacy we have been doing in and outside the classroom! March is a time for me as an educator to reflect on the influence music has on our children today. I was excited to receive information from the National Association of Music Education this month, promoting music education with their new campaign, "Think Beyond the Bubbles"
Music not only impacts academic achievement, it also shapes the way our students understand themselves and the world around them. Let's think beyond the bubbles and educate the whole student.
check out their website for more info!
For starters the Fourth Graders had wonderful violin concerts last week. They performed for their families during the morning and showed them all of the techniques they have been cultivating on their own violins! I was so proud of them! My favorite quote of the week from a parent was, "I can't believe that fourth graders can sound THAT GOOD on the violin!" and from a lovely student, "Mrs. Morgan, my Mom and Dad were so proud of me." Great work fourth grade!
