Spring Concerts

Bekah had a cello concert on May 10th. There are 3 girls playing cello and lots playing the violin. They did a great job. The band also played that night.
Here are all the fourth graders playing the recorder. Now this takes me back. I totally remember doing this in the fourth grade. There were about 10 songs the kids could learn, each one getting progressively harder. As a motivation to learn the songs they earned a "belt" (a piece of yarn tied to the end of the recorder) for each song they completed. Bekah was really excited every time she earned a "belt". I thought that was a cute way to help the kids and make it fun. All the kids still had their yarn belts tied to their recorders for the concert.
