Vocalize/warm up everyday this week (This is not for a grade)
VOCALIZATIONS
This week we encourage you to get back into a vocal routine. We vocalize everyday in class so see what you remember. Even if it is just for 5 minutes take some time to sing. Mr. Powell will be posting an audio file to google classroom with some of the exercises we do in class. I will be posting a video of Ms. King from Central High School singing some of the vocalizations she does with her class. This is not for a grade but just a reminder that the voice is a muscle and when we don't use it we lose it.
A message form the directors
Greetings and happy Monday! I hope that you are each staying engaged and positive in this time. Mr. Powell and I miss you and miss making music!
Week one of virtual choir is done! The following is information on this week's assignments, newsletter, and some reminders from last week.
Assignments and Reminders
- This week the second theory assignment is due. This is a quiz over the bass clef.
- We will also be posting some warm-up/vocalization videos for you to use. These will not be graded assignments but are available for you to keep singing and working on technique.
- Mr. Powell will make an audio file of vocalizations for you to practice without another voice singing. This will be posted in google classroom this week and is not an assignment but another tool to KEEP SINGING!
- If you are enrolled in multiple classes, you only have to submit each assignment once. We will transfer your grades to each other class.
- Due to Covid-19, Mr. Powell and I are available to you through email or Remind any time that you have questions about anything. We don’t want our assignments to be a burden or stress on you during this time. Please reach out to us with any questions or concerns that you have.
Newsletter:
We will continue to have a weekly newsletter that will be attached to the Monday email. The purpose of the newsletter is to list weekly assignments, share any news we have, and post pictures and information that will keep our choir family connected.
I will continue to post pictures from choir activities in the fall. If you would like to share pictures or stories of your child doing anything music related we welcome it! You can email those pictures or stories to me at laurenlafferty@misdmail.org
In our newsletter I have linked a google form for choir seniors to fill out. This is information that I will post in the newsletter to recognize all choir seniors.
Please stay safe, wash your hands, and keep singing!
Ms. Lafferty
