A Little Bit of "New" for the Music Room

8/24/2018

 
Picture
I have been wanting a message for my door and this is it!
Picture
I ordered both of these drums at the end of April last semester. I like to get authentic drums when I can so, I deal with a small company out of New Orleans who gets these from Thailand. There was a shipping issue from Thailand to New Orleans. I received the first drum in a few days, as expected. The second drum I got today (August 24th). Apparently, Customs stopped the second shipment and returned it twice! Oh, well. At least I have them now.

He Won Two SEF Grants

Picture
We are back at school! It is the first day back for teachers. The students will arrive on the 22nd. The district provided breakfast and them awarded SEF grants from last spring's submissions. Jeremy received 2! One her was pretty sure of, but the other was a complete shock!  Now he is going to be very busy this year with both a Lego Robotics club and a Drone club.

One of the last science units Jeremy taught last semester was about growing plants from seed. They planted their vegetables before setting out for the summer. We have been checking on the sprouts a bout every two weeks and they have been making good progress.
