6th Grade Band
Practice cards are continuing for the 2nd Marking Period.  Practice cards are a homework assignment and are 25% of each marking period grade.  Students are assigned 70 minutes of practice time each week and it is a time management tool for young learners.  Practice cards will be handed out every Monday and are due the following Monday.  After the practice session and cards are completed they are to be signed by an adult who supervised the practice session and then returned to Miss Essex.
