Day 161: Beautiful Music

Day 161 saw the arrival of the Spring Concert.  If your school has any type of music program, you probably know all about the Spring Concert. 

My school offers chorus, orchestra, and band for students in grades 4 and 5.  Lessons for the instruments are given in small groups during school hours once a week; whole group weekly practices also occur.  Each spring, each grade level group performs a dress rehearsal concert for the school before they perform for their parents in an evening concert. 

Day 161 was the date of the fourth-grade spring concert.  The lower grades were treated to the sounds of the band, then the chorus, then the choir.  For many of my students, this was exciting because they have siblings or neighbors up on the stage performing.

Next week will be fifth grade's concert.  Looking forward to it.
