Another great composition from one of our 8th graders, Savannah West with a fitting title for our time! Thanks for sharing Savannah!

Jazz-Fly-2-Using-Spanish-Words-in-a-Story

You are welcome to do this optional activity after viewing the video. It is a fun fill -in-the-blank with Spanish words to create a story activity!

Complete the following rain forest story by filling in the most fitting Spanish phrases.  There are Spanish words with their meanings provided so you can choose which ones you want to use!  This would be fun for 3rd and 4th graders but all ages are welcome to try it!

Jazz Fly 2

This is the next Jazz Fly 2 adventure. It has a Jazz feel with a Latin influence. Look for the Spanish words in the book! 3rd and 4th graders have an optional fun writing assignment that goes along with this story! Enjoy!

Quarantine by Sarah Snelson

Sarah, an 8th grader at Reagan Academy, composed this song on Noteflight (a composing program) we use at Reagan Academy. It is one of the songs we have been playing together online during our video conferencing classes. This is just one example of the fine compositions students are producing during this time. Nice job Sarah!

Easter Music Lesson 2020

We have been learning about Holidays from cultures all over the world.  This week we will be talking about the Easter, Passover and Ramadan holidays and how they all have some things in common: food, family, and music.  I hope the videos are easy to access in the powerpoint.  Happy Easter, Passover and Ramadan!
