6th Grade Band

We learned a great deal from last week's assessment exercises, and we had an amazingly productive rehearsal addressing the weaknesses we identified with assessment.  Last class, using the below lesson plan, we worked on polishing for the concert. Out of all three songs, all which got at least a "3" on our assessment (GREAT JOB!) Knight's Kingdom needs the most work. We will therefore rehearse the entire concert again today, starting with Knights Kingdom. Once complete however we will do a NEW recorded assessment to judge growth towards concert readiness.
