Hello VAES Families! My name is Kristin Sawyer. I am the music teacher at VAES. I am writing to inform you that the VAES special's team has been doing a project with all K-3 students! The project is called "Rhythms and Patterns Around The World". Students have been learning songs and dances from other cultures, creating artwork with patterns from other cultures, building lego instruments to play rhythms, and learning about how sound works and how our bodies are able to move in order to create rhythms and patterns. Students will be showing what they have learned at our K-3 program on December 6th. The program will be held in the High School gym at 1:15pm. Please save the date! I need help from you to get a video ready for the program. One of the songs that we will be singing says "I can change the world". I would love to have families record their child saying this in a language other than English. If your family speaks another language and you would like for your child to be included in the video shown at the program, please record a short video clip of them saying " I can change the world" in another language. It is best if you use your phone or ipad and email it to me ksawyer@voyageracademy.net! Remember if you are emailing me a video clip you are giving permission for it to be shown at the program on December 6th. If you have any questions please let me know. Thank you!
