5th Grade Music Program

The 5th Grade Music Program "We Haz Jazz" will be presented Tuesday, October 22 at 7:00 p.m. in the Langston Hughes Gym.  Students will need to report at 6:45 p.m. to their classroom.  Students may dress in black or white clothing.

I am sending home CD's and a word sheet for each to student to practice with at home.  This will help with memorization of the words as I do not see them daily for rehearsals.  If you do not have a CD player you can download it onto an MP3 player or you can also play it on your computer.



If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks for all your help and support.

4th Grade Recorder Orders

      The 4th grade students will be using recorders in music class this year. Because recorders are a popular item to own, I will be sending in an order to purchase recorders.  This is not a requirement as we do have recorders provided in music class. If you buy a recorder it will be yours to keep for home practice.  This is helpful for students who have problems remembering to bring their recorder back to school for music class.
     These are high quality recorders that are offered to me at a special teacher discount of $5.50 a piece.
I have sent a order form with students this past week.  Please fill out the order form and return the money or check in an envelope to Mrs. Robinson by Friday, September 20. Please make checks out to Langston Hughes Elementary.
