Leroy is ready for our National Anthem performance this Sunday at the Atlanta Braves game against the San Diego Padres! Let’s go, Cougar Chorus!!

Such a fun project for 6th grade. A big theme in 6th grade this year has been music in movies and the art of sound effects! Can’t wait to see how these scholars have created sound effects to their short films

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

So proud of these middle schoolers who killed it in FROZEN JR last night! It was a blast getting to be music director and vocal coach and see tremendous growth during their rehearsals this school year!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

Nothing gets these 8th graders and awake and motivated like a little HEY HEY JAM! I especially love to see student conductors leading their group of peers!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

@McCallMusicians @mccallprimary1 @cobbperforms @CobbSchools Oh yes!!

One of my favorite 4th grade projects… the story book rap project… students choose a children’s book with a rhyme scheme and turn it into a rap… we are using Casio synthesizer keyboards to create hip hop soundtracks to accompany their rapping performances… so much fun to see

Theatre arts integration into 3rd grade music— when the assignment is to work with your group to create create a “working machine” where each person has to have a movement and sound effect. — amazing results

I’m grateful my chorus students and their hard work. They brought home all Superior ratings at our Cobb county elementary music festival yesterday (aka LGPE). I am proud of their hard work

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

@mshongsclass @CobbVisualArts Gorgeous!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

It’s always an amazing day when you get to spend it at the Steinway Piano Gallery…. It’s even better when your students all receive Superiors and Superior plus on their federation festival performance ratings!! Way to go, A-LISZTers!!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

Prepping for piano federation festival! These kids are working hard! Proud music mama!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

When the assignment is to compose a melody using piano to your chosen responsorial psalm text..: these 7th graders are rockin’ it!!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

It’s sounding pretty blues-y around the music room these days! 5th grade writing their blues song using BandLab to create their music accompaniment

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

Dedication is 7:30 am rehearsal for church music prep… these precious middle schoolers are dedicated to making our church music wonderful! One of my favorite parts of the job!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

Making our way thru the ELEMENTS OF MUSIC REVIEW these 7th graders are excited about writing their own melodies to share with the class!

[Dr. Paula Thomas-Lee @HayesESMusic]

There’s nothing like the first day of recorder for my 3rd graders! Their excitement is palpable! And it brings joy to my heart!
