Have a great summer! Here is a final video of the second grade @CES_FCPS dancing like “Kings and Queens”
Don’t adjust your screen. You’re seeing it correctly. These are KINDERGARTEN composers @CES_FCPS clapping the song they wrote. #smallbutmightymusicians #composers #collaborators

I have had a great week enjoying beautiful music at Chesterbrook. Chorus and Band students showcased their hard work and talents in their spring concert last night. Thank you Mrs. Ater, Mrs. Zenk and Ms. Aquilina for their excellent instruction. @CES_FCPS
Kinders applied their pattern knowledge from math to the music notes they're learning to write! Can you guess the pattern? #crosscurricular #musicismath #mustacheday
The third graders @CES_FCPS learned a song for the cherry blossoms (“sakura”) in Japanese! They also learned about making emotional connections through music (the composer, the performer and the listener). #smallbutmightymusicians #cherryblossomsdc
First graders are working in teams to play xylophones. They played their first song! Do you recognize it? #smallbutmightymusicians #music
3rd graders added their 2nd grade xylophone skills to their 3rd grade recorder skills! #music #xylophones #recorder
Kindergarteners playing their new singing game: We Are Dancing! We have kids, trees, and the wolf in the back. #playtolearn #music #singing
Coming May 2019- the premiere of the song the CES 5/6th grade choir commissioned and collaborated on: Understory by Zach Koors. @FCPSfinearts @CES_FCPS #choir #premiere
6th graders shared their 12-bar blues compositions with classmates to give/get feedback on their drafts in @noteflight where they will later record their lyrics as well! @FCPSfinearts @CES_FCPS
2nd graders did a "percussion petting zoo" where they made predictions about their instruments and figured out how they make sounds #science #experiment #music @CES_FCPS

What’s a great day! Students were busy learning, sharing and entertaining. Kudos to our 4th graders who performed for our office staff this afternoon. @CES_FCPS @ChesterGenMusic
6th graders putting PoG skills into their music PBL- they're collaborating with their "band" to compose an original 12 bar blues style piece using Noteflight @CES_FCPS @FCPSfinearts #music
