5th and 6th Percussionists did a great job perfecting their grips and alternating their hands. @LakeAnneES

My heart was so full seeing that some of our students did band focused hopes and dreams in art class. Love this!! @LakeAnneES

Our 4th grade percussionists are learning good mallet grip, stroke, and alternating hands while playing Mary Had A Little Lamb. Great start to the year! @LakeAnneES @Lakeanne4th

A room with 4th grade percussionists performing for the first time together in person (with 2 playing at home) was music to my ears!! @LakeAnneES

Thank you to the band students who joined me online this morning for some fun music literacy games! @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

Our band music literacy "playdate" was a success this morning! If you missed it don't worry we will do it again. It is fun playing music literacy games with band members. @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

[LAES_Cunningham @CunninghamLaes]

I am hosting a "band playdate" Monday at 10am in our band BBCU for all band students who want to come practice their music literacy skills in a fun game I made. Let's have some fun together before Thanksgiving break. See you there! @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

This week's theme for band lessons is....STAR WARS!! Play music from Star Wars on your instrument, test your note reading skills with Staff Wars, listen to the sound tracks, and don't forget to stop by during specials for a clapping game live with me! @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

[LAES_Cunningham @CunninghamLaes]

Lake Anne Band..today would have been our spring concert. The theme for this week's band lessons is concert time. You get to be a performer and even an evaluator of a performance. Did you give your "living room concert" yet? @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

[LAES_Cunningham @CunninghamLaes]

Distant learning for band class this week is using a plastic cup to play a rhythm game. Join me in our "classroom" at 1pm during our specials time this week and bring your cup. @LakeAnneES #dolphinpride

[LAES_Cunningham @CunninghamLaes]

Staying positive...just added some suggestions and options for band students in google classroom. Check it out if you aren't sure what to play on your instrument. Stay healthy! @LakeAnneES
