The Latest Notes
As we head into the month of April we have added several opportunities for students to communicate safely with other Band Students as well as new ways for students to continue making music!
NoteFlight Learn is an online music notation app allowing students to compose, create, arrange and work with others on music. NoteFlight also has given access to their Pop and Band libraries opening a slew of content for students to learn and explore. 9th-12th grade students have already been using NoteFlight a bit in class and are all setup and ready to go IF you have already been into our Google Classroom from Tri-mister 2. We have NOT been using the content libraries so those are new. if 5th-8th graders have the technology to access NoteFlight then we can set them up with access to the FMS Band Google Classroom and NoteFlight. All they really need is a SmartPhone to make this happen. Of course an iPad or computer/laptop will work also. if you have an iPad, or desktop/laptop then there is another option for students available. SmartMusic is an amazing tool for student to practice with. There are all sorts of exercises, like the 5th and 6th grade Essential Element books as well as more music for them to practice with and explore. Once you are in Google Classroom if you want access to SmartMusic send a message to Mr. Shimmons requesting the access code. ‘’All Parents and students should make sure they are a part of the Remind Messages and the Farwell Band Facebook Group. Remind will become very important as we send out information about the rest of the school year and next fall. lastly..., you can also find Farwell Bands on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube. this Website and Blog will be the main location for information to be posted but we will be posting a notice in as many spots as possible when important information is posted here. If you want to know right away when this website is updated then subscribe to the RSS feed to the right and you should get notified through your RSS reader. Stay safe, Stay Strong and Keep making music! oh.... and for goodness sakes.... STAY home! Comments are closed.
