Next week in music...
6th Grade:
The students are learning about Musical Theater. First, they will learn about what a musical is and who makes a musical possible (composer, librettist, director, choreographer, etc.), then they will study one musical in depth. We will finish the week by watching the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, The King and I, in class. There will be a short quiz on the movie in class on Friday.
