Choir Rehearsal

Choir members -

We will have one last honor choir rehearsal on Friday until 6:00.  Please make sure that your music is memorized by this time.  If you need help or wish to stay before or after school to work with me, let me know!

You will get your t-shirts on Friday afternoon.

Some reminders for Saturday:

  • Please don't wear your t-shirts to rehearsals - bring it with you to change into.   You don't want to be the kid with Ci-Ci's pizza sauce all over your new shirt.
  • You need to be at Grace Evangelical between 8:30 and 9:00 on Saturday morning.
  • The concert will start at 3:00 for your family and friends.
  • I will bring some extra snacks that day - impress me with your memorization on Friday and I will take requests!
  • You are representing Lake Contrary so that means that we are not going to be acting completely crazy.  Furthermore, this is the first time that Honor Choir is being held at this venue and we will want to go back!  If we don't do a good job, we will not be asked back and it is an amazing place for a concert.  Trust me, you don't want to do Honor Choir in a non-air-conditioned auditorium.
  • Do your best and have a great day!

Rap a Tap Tap

5th Graders are learning about the book Rap a Tap Tap - Think of That! by Leo & Diane Dillon.  It is a book about the famous tap dancer Bill "Bojangles" Robinson.  We will be learning more about Bill Robinson during class.  Here are two videos that we will be seeing.




Here is an article about Bill "Bojangles" Robinson on the American Tap Dance Foundation website.
