This is not meant to inundate you, but give you a variety of lessons to choose from. I am available anytime per email if you or your student has any questions. Take this time to really look around you and see all the “art” that is really out there. Miss you... Mr. Rogers: I will assign one simple lesson each week. For vocal/choir, listen to and watch the recordings of various styles of music that I provide. Answer three questions. Please email me your answers. Band, I am working on getting a subscription to SmartMusic. Once I have it, I will instruct you how to log in and find our Essential Elements book that we use in class. You will have the option of several exercises. Please use your ipad to create a video of you playing the exercise of your choice and email it to me by 3:30 each Friday. If you would like more music to play on your own, I will assist. If you have questions, please email me. Take care. Coach Soderlund: For MS and JH PE my goal is to keep students active while hopefully having some fun and staying healthy! I know this is a tough time everyone is going through. If anyone needs anything please don’t hesitate to reach out to me! I will have activities/workouts posted each week with instructions on what to do.
