Today was a really good day. I think I enjoyed myself more today than I do on my day.

The day started off with our beginning music theory class. We did the normal listening activity at the beginning of the. But this time I invited students to field and have to beat and also try to identify the meter. It was pretty basic and most of them did very well. We then did Milotic in Richmond dictation and learned intervals from a second to a bit. I was very surprised with some of the beginning kids and how quickly they were able to what they were learning. When we split into groups I taught my group how to play the first 5 notes of a major scale with both hands on the piano you can correct fingers found them pick it up pretty quickly what other struggles. In the end I was happy with the progress to everyone made.

During concert choir today it got a little crazy because we're working on choreography again. They really need to learn from to the planet not haha everytime we stop I feel like it's getting a little better and then those who respects to another important on courage in other kids do the same. I found that the same method or just send me something about it I already work the best for this trip. I'm not sure what to do in the future but will try using different procedures message to accomplish our goals of helping them.

At lunch time we had a rehearsal with all the man in the choir. This was my first time hearing all the men things together and it was awesome my first time hearing nothing like a dame being son from beginning to end. This rehearsal brought some home seen this song I was pretty worried about it before but I do believe they will be able to succeed in seeing the song.

During the last hour and mixed chorus I was thrilled with how much we were able to accomplish and learn. We started off with the song that we will be singing in combine group seize the day, parking creation. And they did a pretty good job. Most of them haven't been very exposed to the song so there someone new for them. Again I was happy with their eyes focus on their willingness to learn music. We then broken to section of the women stayed with me Crockett by the men with me we worked on individual parts of spark creation and nothing like a dame. The boys were out is normal but we were able to accomplish them. When we went back together re same parking creation together again and it sounded much better. After which I was able to work on go down Moses with them. They seem more excited about this on another song and their focus was great. For the end of class begin to get a little antsy so we sing the whole thing well, from the beginning so where we stop learning. I was really happy with her success and I let them go 1 minute early.
