4th Grade Chorus and Music Lesson Week of June 8 - 12

Chorus Lesson

 I am very sad you didn't get to perform in the Spring Concert and Flag Day this year. You sounded great together in chorus and sang with a lot of energy and happiness. Sing all the songs we would have done in the spring concert. Ask your family which one they liked the best.
