Arts Night! Arts Night! Arts Night!

Arts Night is soon upon on Thursday, May 17th! and we are working very hard at our rehearsals.
Rehearsing can be a tough job, especially for the youngest students, as it takes a lot of patience and a lot of repetition.  The students are doing a great job. They've been practicing entering and exiting the stage.  They've been practicing projecting their voices to fill the stage (it's going to be a big stage).  They are polishing up their choreography.  And they've been practicing their bows in preparation for the rounds of thunderous applause! 

We definitely have a fun show in store for you!

This week, some of our JK classes also have had the opportunity to start exploring music about animals to accompany their UOI of "Is It Alive?".  We've been listening to excerpts Camille St. Saens Carnival of the Animals and trying to guess what animal it sounds like.  We then have been moving to the music like those animals.

Here we have some little chickens pecking the ground for some yummy grubs.


Here we have some birds flying around the aviary.


And here we have a stampede of elephants!

While our JKs are learning animal songs, our SKs are continuing to explore different feelings in music.
