8th Grade Band!

Hello and welcome to our rehearsal for 8th Grade!

We have a lot to do today. Unfortunately we have a shorter period due to the delayed opening. It is very important that we make full use of the time we have. Remember our new procedures!

Our Learning Targets:

(Drums)  I can play 2 variations of the hip hop beat on the drum set at least a 2 on my 4 point rating scale.

Wind and bells: I can play a concert Bb major, Eb major, and F major scale with arpeggio

I can evaluate my performance using our 4 point rating scale and give concrete examples of how to improve.

I can play Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring at a 2 or more on our 4 point rating scale.

Here is our plan:

1) Take your red clip and sign in! We have extra copies of all the music in the section already.

2) Objective discussion: Jesu

3) Warm Ups! - Scales and rudiments

4) We will be starting with "Jesu" We will be discussing what playing 3/4 time "in one" means. We will practice counting and clapping.

5) Mr. Akter will model the piece at the piano. We will be building this bottom to top.

8) Practicing Assignments.

I look forward to seeing you for PLC!
