5th Grade Uptown Funk Recorder Help

You want Uptown Funk recorder made easier?  Here you go.  The top link below is a recording of me saying the letters of the recorder part so that it is easier for you to understand your music.  The second link is a recording of me going through each section of the song... BECAUSE, REALLY, if each of you learns a section or 2, you can play those AND play some drums, and the whole thing will come together nicely.  It could be a lot of fun!  Check these out:

"Furaha Kwa Ulimwengu" and "Joy to the World" for our Choir

The Blog is back!-- here to help some choir members for this weekend's Christmas concert.
Here are the lyrics for our version of "Furaha Kwa Ulimwengu" (youtube link: http://youtu.be/hHIczyYobWU in case this is hard to hear or see)...

AND here is "Joy to the World"

Choir Family Mass Dates

The remaining Family Masses are on the following dates:
March 16th, April 20th, May 18th, and June 1st--- though because we are adding days at the end of the year to make up for snow days, it's possible that last date could change.

You'll notice that April 20th is Easter.  That is correct.  This year, the St. Sylvester School Choir members will be lending their voices to celebrate Easter at St. Sylvester Church!  I understand that some families will be out of town, but for those able to make it, it will be an extra special experience with extra instruments (professional players) added just for the occasion.

3rd Grade Concert Prep Materials

Here are some helpful videos from YouTube...

The Little Drummer Boy (This is much faster than we do it, but these are the right words):

O Come O Come Emmanuel (Remember, you are doing the 3rd and last verses):

Don't forget to also practice "The Wassail Song" and your recorder song "Good King Wenceslas."

You have been doing great work!!
