Spring programs culminate
the school’s music activities
th ro u g h o u t the year by
showing the world that staying
in key is really possible despite
the way things sound at the
beginning of the school year.
Students at both Warm
Springs elementary school and
Simnasho elementary school
demonstrated that singing is
both fun and harmonious. This
comes with a year’s practice.
Each class at Warm Springs
elementary performed two to
th ree selectio n s fo r the
audience in their May 13
program entitled “ Looney
Tunes.” Each musical selection
was a humorous piece ranging
in titles from “My Funny
Bone” to “There’s a hole in my
bucket.”
The Simnasho students sang
a variety of songs along with
performing Indian Dances and
songs they had previously done
during the spring break Hawaii
trip. They May 17 evening
included a potluck dinner and a
slide show made by teacher
Rich Little and Simnasho
students. f.
Each stu d e n t in b oth
programs put all their effort
into singing for the audiences.
