6/3/2020 Last day of school... I only shared this video on our flipgrid until today. Here's my classic rock practice jam in the park. I hope it inspires you to keep making music over the summer. When you do, share some on the flipgrid below sometime! I miss you guys, and I hope you have a great summer break!

5/18/20 What's up jam clubbers!? This week there are a few Patriotic video links below for you to sing, tap out rhythms, knuckle-strum, or jam along to any way you can. 5/25 is Memorial Day, so you can impress your folks at home with a jam sesh that honors the memories of our military heroes. –These are also good to know around the 4th of July too, so it's a head start on that.😉 If you had fun with any of these... PUT IT ON THE FLIPGRID! 🤘📲🎶
–And then there's the big video link, and my biggest challenge ever. WRITE A SONG. No worries, you can totally do this! The Scrambled Chords video is like the best parts of music class from my teacher-brain packed into 2 minutes! watch carefully, pause on the screen for cool websites or for chord progressions at the end, and try to create your own idea for a piece of music. If you like what you created... PUT IT ON THE FLIPGRID! I triple-dog DARE you! 😱😎 Have a great week, and jam on! 🎶 🙌🏻

Focus Groups and Music Mentor Club Students: I miss jamming with you guys so much! This page will help us stay in touch and practice what we can, when we can. You can check the middle grades page for review stuff to practice, and we will focus on modern band pieces and strategies here. The videos on the left will help you get tuned up. Remember, even without an instrument you can knuckle strum, air strum, body drum, and practice using your voice. Have fun! 😎🎸🎤🤘 |
