MONDAY 9/1 – No School – Labor Day

TUESDAY 9/2 – No Class

Even though it’s the first day of school, there is no class due to an early release for a PUD-scheduled power outage that begins at 10:00 a.m. and has been arranged to last the entire day.

WEDNESDAY 9/3 Orientation

Today you’ll get a course syllabus that needs to be signed by a parent and returned to class, and we’ll play a fun singing game called “Ackalacka.” 

THURSDAY 9/4 More Orientation

Yesterday I found out that quite a few of you are very shy about singing by yourself—that’s okay, because you won’t have to sing by yourself in a performance if you choose not to—you just need to be willing to sing along at the beginning of class each day and to sing privately in front of me.

Today, we’ll warm up with “Ackalacka,” sing “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” in rounds, and do some reflective writing about music. If we have time we’ll do a five note warm up called “Balabba.”

Next week we’ll begin some basic guitar instruction.

FRIDAY 9/5 – No Class on Fridays.
