'50s Props/Costumes Needed!!

 Here are some pictures I showed the 6th graders in order to give them more of an idea of the time period, culture, and costumes we'll need to recreate.

August's Composer of the Month

 We kicked this school year off with one of the most famous composers of all time-Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart!! Although he lived almost 3oo years ago, everyone today still knows his name and has most likely heard his music. Mozart is one of the few true child prodigies, meaning he was a musical genius at a very young age. He began playing piano and violin at age 4, composing at 5, and performing around the country at 6 years old!

Each week of the month we studied a new composition of his:
A Little Night Music, Allegro

Variations on Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

Der Holle Rache from The Magic Flute
