If you like singing, consider learning about acapella in your own time because its a big part of song improvisation.
Have a safe week and remember to wash your hand frequently for at least 20 seconds.

Hello DVS Jaguars! Have an amazing week learning about music! Stay Safe as always!
 
Do you know the meaning of the word Acapella?  This week's lesson is all about your voice and singing.
If you think you need an instrument like a Guitar, Piano, or Ukulele to accompany your voice (Singing), then you are wrong.
Our beautiful voice is an instrument and it can imitate one as well, and this week we are going to learn about it.

Do you think its a simple process? This week, we are going to find out with a few singers telling their story of how they created specific songs.

I can't express how much I miss seeing every single one of you in person, with your stories and jokes.
This week we are going to learn more about music in arts, which involves dancing, dramatic, and visual arts.
If you can send me a video of you dancing your favorite song through my email, I will gladly enjoy watching.

I have created a new class called Beginning Band for those who are in the band.
This week we are continuing our knowledge of musical instruments, but we are going to watch with live performances.

Hi Desert View Jaguars,
Missing all of you from my home and wishing to see all of you very soon.
Parents, I'm assigning the kids to watch some videos from YouTube talking about Sound and Pitch. We already talk about pitch in class so they will not be totally lost from the videos.
