Last week was an extremely busy week for the music dept.! On Tuesday morning, OLG first graders and kindergartners were each recorded for the DuTrac sponsored radio spots. The first graders sang "Away in a Manger" from our upcoming Christmas program. The kindergartners sang "Merry Christmas/Feliz Navidad". Recording is an exhausting experience. Miss Wightman was recording us, which we really appreciated. We both wanted the best possible recording, but weren't expecting perfection. However, we had a few false starts. I made an obvious mistake once on the piano. Hopefully everyone will be pleased with the end result when they get to hear our youngsters. Our broadcast times are the following: Dec. 4 @ 2:35; Dec. 12 @ 6:35 a.m. and Dec. 19 @ 7:35 p.m.
Also on Tuesday, all first and second graders received parent letters to take home. These letters outlined the costume suggestions for our Christmas program which will be Dec. 14th at 2:00 and 7:00. The second graders received their speaking parts as well. I'd like all speaking parts to be memorized by the end of this week.
I received a wonderful email from Mrs. Hill over Thanksgiving break! She is willing to make all the sashes for the first grade boys who are soldiers. She is also donating all the material! If you have a soldier in your household, be sure to express your appreciation!
The Kindergartners all will be singing in a short Christmas concert on Tuesday, Dec. 15th at 6:30. They will be joining the preschool and pre-K children's program. Both OLG K classes will sing together.
I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving!
