A quick message – At the beginning of the school year, I presented each instrument to all 5th grade students at their school. Those interested returned the interest form. I met with those students and tested them on their instrument of choice. After a few weeks we established a lesson schedule where I meet with students once a week for a twenty-minute lesson. Lessons started approximately the third week of September. Since that time, we have learned how to put the instrument together, make a sound, learn to play seven notes, and read basic music rhythms. I encourage all students to practice at home! We want to sound our best when it’s concert time! We will be performing ten songs. If you have any questions please don’t’ hesitate to contact me, chad.parker@dmschools.org

Thank you!
