Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope everyone has a relaxing and enjoyable Thanksgiving! The music room is buzzing!

We are continuing our program work, listed below are things needed for each group.
will need help for the students in Mrs. Welty, Mrs. Eastman, and Mrs. McMahon classes in regards to costumes and props. Movietyme Productions professionally tapes the programs and they are available to you for purchase! I will send home the forms the first week in December.

Mrs. Welty's class, I will be making the costumes, there is a list of needed items for some props they have brainstormed for one of the songs- it is very cute! They are so creative! Any help with donations would be appreciated. Thank you to those of you who have donated already!
• 100 popsicle sticks
• silver and gold thin foam sheets (we will cut stars out of those)


Mrs. Eastman's class will be kings, queens, and camels. The kids can tell you which they are. For the kings and queens, You can put the kids in bathrobes with crowns to keep it simple, or you can go elaborate and buy or make a costume- it is up to you. For the camels, you can have them wear brown shirt and pants, and black boots- if you want to make them a hump on their back it is up to you. Please let me know any questions, so I can help if you need further assistance.

Mrs. McMahon's class will be shepherds and sheep. For the shepherds, you can put them in a bathrobe, tie a rope around their waist, scarf on their head with a rope wrapped around the top for their head piece. For the sheep they need white shirts, khacki or white pants and black boots if possible. No props needed like a shepherd crook. Please let me know any questions, so I can help if you need further assistance.

In the other grades we are improvising and creating, if you would like more details, please follow up with the Agenda. Have a great week! As always! Any questions, please let me know! Thank you!
