Congrats, Alex!! #NighthawkProud
Happy #MIOSM! A music ensemble is similar to a sports team. It requires
teamwork and relationship skills to perform music as a team. Play the instruments
or sing as an ensemble with your class today, and share with the class how you
demonstrated teamwork! #NCGME #MusicIsAllOfUs #NighthawkProud
Happy #MIOSM! Jake Blount is a music researcher and folk musician. He
performs and teaches about the origins of the banjo and African American folk
music in America. Many people don’t realize that the banjo actually originated from
Africa. Listen to Jake Blount’s music and research other banjo performers.

Happy #MIOSM! Sometimes musicians like to perform their own versions of
another artist’s song. We usually call the new version of a song a cover.
Sometimes, the cover is more well known than the original song! Find several
examples of original and cover songs. Compare the two versions. Which version
do you like better? Share your answers with a friend. #NCGME #MusicIsAllOfUs #NighthawkProud
Good luck to Knowledge Bowl as they head to Regionals at Whitworth today. #NighthawkProud
It is Music in Our Schools Month #MIOSM!

and differences in your musical likes and dislikes. #NCGME #MusicIsAllOfUs #NighthawkProud

Reminders of some upcoming dates!
Good Morning-
Parents of middle and high school students received a link/QR code for a short survey in the envelope with the most recent grade check. There was an issue with the link that has since been fixed. You can use that same link/QR code and it will work now.
Elementary parents will receive the same survey link/QR code in the next day or so. It will be sent home with your child. If you have already completed it because you also have middle or high school students, no need to do it a second time. Each family should complete the survey once. Thank you.
