Hello,
Just wanted to send out a quick update about what we are working on and what is coming up. Please feel free to contact me with any questions! -Mrs. Neal
Music: Will be wrapping up the last of the playing tests on Friday and moving forward to learn some new notes. Currently the students know 5 notes. Trumpets/Clarinets know C D E F G and Flute/Trombones know Bb C D Eb F G. We will be adding 3 more notes to give us a complete scale and also working on more complicated rhythms and songs. There will be 2 more extra help sessions with the ODSS students on Monday January 18th and Monday January 25th. These will likely be the last two sessions as the high school term is coming to an end.
Math: We have been reviewing Prime and Composite numbers and working on finding factors, multiples and and solving problems using these concepts. Moving forward we will be working on powers(exponents), square roots and order of operations, as well as multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, 1000 and estimating quotients.
Looking for extra practice?
