The reed graveyard is up and running! #SayNoToMold #DeadReeds #ElementaryBand

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

Day 4 of testing today! Hoping to finish all of the @GarnerElem 5th graders today #herewego #banddirectorlife #randomnoisesday

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

How many instruments can you fit in the trunk of a Honda Civic? 2 flutes, 2 clarinets, 2 altos, a trombone, a French horn, and a baritone, apparently. Three demos down, one to go next week, and then the testing begins! #ICCSD #elementaryband

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

Instrument packets prepped and ready to go for over 150 5th graders at Garner/Kirkwood! Can’t wait for them to try out all the band instruments over the next few weeks!

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

Ice cream social tonight at Garner–excited to meet some new students and prepare for the 2018-19 school year in Iowa City!

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

@MsSteklac Very very well!! Students loved it and were super engaged for each activity!

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

@AndreaMakarchuk First clue was a cipher using musical symbols that they had to identify, 2nd was rhythm sudoku, 3rd was rhythm math, last one alphabetized musical terms. Each one led them to the next clue!

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

And they’re in!! Congratulations to Cheyenne, Annabelle, Bayla, and Isabel for being the first to crack the code! #wmucsd #escapethebandroom

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

This team is still in the lead and alphabetizing furiously to get code for the case! #wmucsd #escapethebandroom

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

A different group sped through the sudoku and is on the third clue! This will be a close race! #wmucsd #escapethebandroom

[Mr. Carlo @Carlo_MusicEd]

First team to reach the second clue: Rhythm Sudoku! #wmucsd
