What a fun day I had with Mrs. Hancock at Olympic View Elementary. I was able to share with each of the classes the importance of music education and the opportunities that are available to them throughout school and as a future career. Each class had great questions and input in our music discussion.
Mrs. Hancock's room is full of instruments that each class has the opportunity to play during their time in music class. She also puts together fun programs that the students perform during assembly's and for parents. These types of programs are done as something above and beyond what is required of a music teacher. Show your appreciation for your music teacher by supporting the arts programs when you vote and let them know how much you care about what they do!
Here is what the classes did on Tuesday:
Mrs. Saecho's 3rd grade sang and danced The Cotton Eyed Joe and practiced other country songs.
Mrs. Vaurnice's 1st grade class were singing song's from all over the world including Africa, China & Japan
Miss Brown's 6th grade class played the Xylaphones
Mr. Jone's 4th grade class played the recorders and sang Native American Songs
Ms. Kendig's Kindergarten class learned about smooth and sharp music sounds
Mrs. Dahlen's 5th grade class played the Xylaphones
Mrs. Knapp's 3rd grade class sang Country songs and practiced their Shu Fly Song for the assembly
