4th and 5th Grade Chorus
Paxtang and Rutherford Elementary
Welcome 4th and 5th Grade!
This page is all about chorus! Even though this year looks different that years past, singing is still just as important and a great way to relax for a little bit! Feel free to explore this page and see what Mrs. May has shared with you!
2020-2021 School Year
As of now, we will NOT have any chorus rehearsals. We want to start the schools year easily and as smoothly as possible, and chorus doesn't fit. Right now, there will be NO live concerts during this school year. Teachers and principals are discussing the idea of having completely virtual music groups this year, but no decision has yet been made.
Large groups are NOT a good idea right now, and we want to make sure everyone stays healthy and safe. So, even though we may not have chorus at all this year, please let Mrs. May know if you are interesting by signing up below! More information will be given as decisions are made.
CORE students, please sign up if you are interested! Because chorus might be completely virtual, you would be able to participate!

Reading Music
Reading music is not entirely necessary at this level of Chorus, but it will become important as you get older (and as you advance in music class with Mrs. May)! Use the picture and website below to help you practice your note reading skills!
