From Mrs. Fenton: Hello, students and families! This week, I have created a video music challenge for my VERY talented students. PLEASE participate in the challenge by using the following link and password. Once you arrive at the linked site, you will find everything you need to know for the challenge, including directions for submitting the final product, which is a VERY short and simple music video, using one of the songs we sing all the time in class. You will record your challenge on the linked site. It is SUPER EASY to do and also a LOT OF FUN! Please submit your challenge video by Friday, April 17th. All of the video submissions will then be placed into one big video, which will be shared on the Schofield Facebook page for students and families to enjoy. I can't wait to see YOU in the video YOU create!
