Happy Friday!
This week in Exploring Music 6, we wrapped up our guitar unit and began our final unit on music technology. Students took a written and performance guitar test on Monday. I want to congratulate everyone on a job well done! I was so impressed that this group of students was able to pick up a new instrument and learn it so quickly and so well! Be sure to check out ParentPortal for your student's final results. Be on the look out for all of the papers acquired in this unit to come home later next week, too!
Tuesday we began our final unit on music technology. During this unit, students will have the oppertunity to work with the Garageband App for the Ipad to compose their very own music! We learned about the care and keeping of the Ipads and began to work with Garageband on Friday. Students were introduced to the many different aspects of the program! Students will be assigned the first official project on Monday which will deal with musical form. Be sure to ask your child what musical form is and what form the first Ipad project is in! :)
Have a great weekend,
Ms. Barkin
