5th Grade Strings Homepage
Impulse Recording
Here is a link to the recording of Impulse. I think it is really helpful to listen to the recording each day before I practice it!
Supplies and Instrument Rental Information
We will need an instrument and some basic supplies to get started with our lessons. Please see the instruction sheet (link below) to get started! I recommend placing the order by early August. You will need adult family members at home to help you with this.
About Strings...
5th Graders can join for the first time or continue in strings class from last year. They learn to play the violin, viola, cello, or string bass. Here is how it works...
1.) Students receive one 30 minute lesson each week during the school day. Lessons begin the week after labor day.
2.) 5th Graders come to orchestra before school on Thursdays. It begins on September 24th and starts at 7:30. This is required, so let me know if you need help finding transportation :)
3.) Students receive two report cards in strings (January and June). Students are expected to always do their best and practice 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week to participate.
