Hello!

This week you have three areas to focus on, you have an assignment for the play and two  for the guitar/ukulele class.

Part one:

DESIGN YOUR COSTUME 

(Play assignment)

Do some research, and design a costume for your character.

Our play is set/happening in the old west.

What would  you character wear? 

Here are some suggested ways you can do your assignment:

1. COLLAGE Find pictures that show what costume could be, create a collage with the pictures.

2. SKETCH/DRAW/PAINT out your ideas digitally or by hand.

3. Do you have another idea to design you costume ? Go for it. 

Part two:

WRITE NEW LYRICS TO A SONG

Songs need words.

For this class you will practice writing words for your own song.  We call these words lyrics.

1. Choose a 3-4 songs that most people would know and write new words (lyrics). 

2. Decide if you would like to A. sing your new words by yourself or B. have our whole group sing along in class on Thursday.

3. Of the songs you wrote new words for Pick your favorite one.  Send your new words/lyrics to me by Wednesday at 6:00pm!!

I need these words so we can use them in class the next day!!
