New Beginnings

The last two weeks we have had some new beginnings with the New Year.
Lincoln Choir has begun rehearsing on Tuesday afternoons and All City Choir has begun rehearsing for the next 9 weeks on Thursday afternoons at OHS with students from the other schools in our district and St. Mary's school as well.   We have 15 new membeers of the Lincoln Choir and they have made a great choir even better!  

Schedules for both of these groups can be found on respective pages in this blog.

Grade 3 created rhythmic and movement patterns to a Navajo game.  You will find pictures of some of these on the "Pictures and Video" page.  They were quite creative and turned out well.

Thank- you all who attended the Music Booster Concert!   Here are a few excerpts of the Lincoln Music teacher's performances.  Pretty fun!

Hi Lincoln Families,

I hope you take time to 'sharpen your saws' with music making over this winter break.  You will find a Holiday Sing-a-long slide presentation on the "Resources for Everyone" page.  On the fifth grade page you will find some new holiday/winter words to songs we sing in the classroom in a slide show called "Student Holiday Songs 2012"

Lincoln Choir resumes on Tuesday, January 15th. New members are welcome from 4th and 5th grade at that time.

Thanks for a Great Concert

 

Thanks everybody for a GREAT concert.  I was so proud of our Lincoln musicians! They sang well and showed so much poise and discipline during our performance.  I am one lucky teacher to have such great kids.

This week each class recorded a video of them singing a Christmas carol for the 25 Owatonna deployed soldiers.  The had a great time, used their best singing and created music that hopefully will make a special memory for those who are far way from home.   After Thanksgiving, these videos will be uploaded to a special page on this blog.
