Week of November 26

WELCOME BACK!
The holiday season is now officially upon us.  Stay focused, keep practicing hard, and we're going to be just fine.

THANK YOU, BIG BONE SINGERS!
You did a beautiful job representing Lincoln HS!  I'm very proud of you and grateful that you gave up part of your Thanksgiving Day to celebrate with us.  Bone stayed home for a record 21st year in a row!

THIS WEEK'S HOMEWORK
Our next study topic is intervals.  If you have not studied this subject, please wait until after the presentation in class!  Due on or before Quiz Day on Thursday.

It is now officially too late to do any of the previous classmarker assignments.  Please make sure you are doing your part in staying caught up so your grade does not suffer any serious ramifications.

WINTERSONG TICKETS
Buy your tickets to our Renaissance celebration on November 30 and December 1—$15 each!  Seating is limited, so make sure you buy early.  We will need lots of student help as well...more information coming soon!  Tickets  will be available for purchase at lunch in Room 91 or you can order online:  http://www.lincolnperformingarts.com/music-events-and-tickets.html

FALL 2018 PERFORMANCE REPORT
Remember, the paper copy of your report is due on December 10.  The report will be available for you to download beginning on Monday.  You must review a jazz, musical theater or classical performance.

There are LOTS of choices for you to review because it's the beginning of the holiday season.  Please ask if your performance is a good choice if you are not sure. (Remember, Wintersong will count!)

Look for more details in your class syllabus.

POINSETTIAS
Our delivery is scheduled for Wednesday!  That means I need a crew of people to help me sort the orders directly after school on Wednesday.  It will take a crew of 15 people approximately 1 hour to get them all sorted, beginning at 2:15 pm.  Orders can be picked up between 3:30-4:30 pm or directly from teachers the following day.  If you can help, please sign up on the board in Room 91.

The Unsung Hero is someone who has selflessly gone above and beyond to help, inspire and be a positive example.
