Thank you Vowles Families!

The performances Thursday and Friday went very smoothly! Parents, I hope you've shared a big hug with your children for the great job that they did with their singing and playing. Their hard work over the last few weeks (and earlier in the year with Mrs. Hofmeister) was really evident. Thank you to all who attended either day. It would be sad to give a concert and have no audience. That's not a problem at Vowles!

This week the students will be able to watch the DVD of Friday's performance. (You can purchase the same DVD by acquiring a form from me or contacting Heitman video services directly. The cost of each DVD is $10.00)

Older students will also be able to view their Music Ace compositions. Younger students will finish the year by singing their favorite songs and playing musical games (mostly play party games from earlier in American history.) Feel free to join us for the Louisell Family Concert at Vowles on June 9 at 2:50. This is our gift to the Vowles Family.

Performances soon!

Oops! We've been busy preparing for our performances and I've forgotten to post! We finished assessments (playing on music instruments) last week for the last report cards. Now we are putting the finishing touches on our performance materials. Please join us on Thursday, May 27 at 2:35 for the Parent Program or Friday, May 28 for Grandparents'/VIP Day. The musical performance for that day will be at 2:45. Students will be performing some of their favorite songs from this year. Mrs. Hofmeister will be playing the piano for us. The students are excited to be able to see her again.
Year end details include the 3rds and 4ths sharing their compositions which were done using the computer program, "Music Ace," some play party games for the younger students and an assembly on June 9 at 2:50 by the Louisell Family Band. Feel free to stop by for that. Bluegrass music will be featured.
