Today we created Musical Pictures! Each class decided on a category, then Ss worked in groups to create music that painted a picture of something in that category.
Todayโs categories: the ocean & cheese.
Ss used instruments, Chrome Music Lab, & Noteflight w/ creative results!

This week we made music! For the first time in quite a while, the DHMS band students were able to play instruments together in the classroom. It was great!!

6th grade band students worked in groups to teach the class about various musical terms. They learned about their topic, then created slideshows, stories, games, and more to teach their classmates!

I am SO impressed by the work of the DHMS Wind Ensemble! In groups, students created their own arrangements of Jodie Blackshawโs 13 Moons: East. Their creativity was inspiring โบ๏ธ

7th & 8th grade band students are working in groups to create their own arrangements of โ13 Moonsโ by Jodie Blackshaw. Itโs a composing piece, which means Ms Blackshaw provided the melody and accompaniment, and the students get to make all other musical decisions!
