Dear Families of Trivium East Scholars,
A big thank you to the scholars and families who made the trek to Choir Night at the Diamondbacks this past Friday! Our scholars truly represented Archway Trivium East with excellence, as we joined other schools across the valley in performing our National Anthem on Chase Field before the game. It felt magical to me, and the joy on our scholars' faces showed that it was a special moment for all of us. I could not have asked for better support from families, scholars, teachers, and administration. Thank you again. Another highlight of our week last week was 4C being visited by a Great Hearts camera crew. We asked what they would like to hear, and we proceeded to all share our National Anthem as well as many variations of Rocky Mountain, both sung and played on xylophones and conga drums. We talked about how it is an honor to get to share our music with others, and were happy to have the opportunity to do so. We have many objectives in music class. We work towards musical literacy through learning our rhythmic and melodic elements, we learn how to sing in tune, we learn about our heritage through folk songs, we build musical communities, and we prepare concert songs. Along the way, it is wonderful to have the opportunity to share the gift of our music with others. Ms. Sassaman |
