Panther Families,
We are excited to announce our Spring Concert for the 2020 SY. This inspirational vocal and instrumental recital will be held on April 2nd, 2020. Students in Pre-Kindergarten through 1st grade will perform at 9:30am and students in 2nd through 5th grade will perform at 1:15pm. You will have the opportunity to see your children express feelings of hope, peace, freedom, and appreciation of the simple things of life through musical expression.
It is important for students to practice as much as possible in order to prepare for the concert. The success of this vocal and piano ensemble truly depends on how many times students practice at home the songs they will perform before the audience. After the Winter break, I will be evaluating the students in order to determine which grade is ready to perform the songs in choir and instrumental ensembles, and which grade needs more help. The more they practice on their voices and instruments, the better chance they have at being able to perform alone or in a group! You can support your child at home by practicing the following songs with your child. Please see the attached documents which include the lyrics of the vocal recital song.
It is important that every student and parent make their best effort to attend this concert. Every voice and single practice are important to make their concert a success! Please do not hesitate to contact the homeroom teacher or contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns. You may contact me at 202-553-8126, or by e-mail at [email protected].
We look forward to seeing you at our upcoming concert!
Sincerely,
Ms. Sandra Granobles Music Teacher

Familias Pantera,
Estamos emocionados de anunciar nuestro Concierto de Primavera para el SY 2020. Este inspirador recital vocal e instrumental se celebrará el 2 de abril de 2020. Los estudiantes de Pre- Kinder a 1er grado actuarán a las 9:30am y los estudiantes de 2do a 5to grado a la 1:15pm. Tendrán la oportunidad de ver a sus hijos expresar sentimientos de esperanza, paz, libertad y apreciación de las cosas simples de la vida a través de la expresión musical.
Es importante que los estudiantes practiquen lo más posible para prepararse para el concierto. El éxito de este conjunto vocal y de piano depende realmente de cuántas veces los estudiantes practiquen en casa las canciones que interpretarán ante el público. Después de las vacaciones de invierno, evaluaré a los estudiantes para determinar qué grado está listo para interpretar las canciones en coro y conjuntos instrumentales, y qué grado necesita más ayuda. Cuanto más practiquen con sus voces e instrumentos, más posibilidades tendrán de actuar solos o en grupo. Puede apoyar a su hijo en casa practicando las siguientes canciones con él. Por favor, vea los documentos adjuntos que incluyen la letra de la canción del recital vocal.
Es importante que cada estudiante y padre haga su mejor esfuerzo para asistir a este concierto. ¡Cada voz y cada práctica son importantes para que su concierto sea un éxito! Por favor, no duden en contactar con el profesor de la clase o en contactarme con cualquier pregunta, comentario o preocupación. Pueden contactarme en el 202-553-8126, o por correo electrónico en [email protected]
Esperamos verlos en nuestro próximo concierto!

Everyone Belongs Words and Music by Glyn Lehmann Bridge Verse Listen carefully We're all different you and me Can you hear a voice That's what we call diversity Struggling to be heard? Every life is like a brand new song Give them a chance to be Heard above the noise It starts out with a melody That’s something everyone deserves And like the branches of a tree Grows and grows throughout your whole life long Interlude
Change will come for better or worse repeat Verse And so you add another verse Sing it loud and sing it strong Chorus x2
Chorus x2 Rap Everyone belongs Everyone is different in so many ways Where they can sing their song Wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same And live in harmony Celebrate your culture, your family history With neighbours, friends and family And when we’re all together celebrate diversity
Rap It's not just about the clothes we wear or how we look The colour of our skin, the kind of food we cook There’s more to you and me than just what meets the eye There’s all the different feelings that we have inside
Everyone is different in so many ways Wouldn’t it be boring if we were all the same Celebrate your culture, your family history And when we’re all together celebrate diversity
