June News: Recital and Special Wrap Up Lessons and Ice Cream Party

Can you believe June is just a couple of days away! I am still trying to wrap my head around that. I cannot believe how quickly the last few months have flown by but, not only are we well into spring, we are just weeks away from summer. In fact, we only have two more weeks of piano lessons. Here is what is coming over over the next couple of weeks:

LAST REGULARLY SCHEDULED LESSONS AND CLASSES
JUNE 4-7 will be our last week of regularly scheduled lessons and classes and we will be spending time getting ready for our Year End Recital. We will have one more week of lessons after the recital but these will not be our usual lessons, it will be a special group class.

YEAR END RECITAL
JUNE 7, 6:30pm will be our recital at the First Church of the Nazarene 14320 94 street.

GROUP CLASSES AND ICE CREAM CELEBRATION
JUNE 10-12 will be special group lessons once again to finish off the year (these will be our very last lessons of the year). We will spend some time doing solo performances, playing music games that review the concepts we worked on over the past year, do ensemble work and improvise. At the end of the hour we will celebrate our accomplishments and incredible practice efforts from this past year with an ice cream sundae party. Please sign up for one of the following days and times:

Monday, June 10, 6-7pm

Tuesday, June 11, 6-7pm

Wednesday, June 12, 6-7pm

I have to apologize that all the times are the same and all are evening times this time around instead of the usually varied times I try to schedule. I am taking a special certification course that week and it runs until 4:30pm each day in the west end. However, considering that it is an ice cream party, perhaps feeding the students ice cream AFTER supper rather than before will work out for the better anyway! 😉

SUMMER BREAK
We will break from lessons for the summer from June 13 to September 9. I hope I will be able to send the students off with enough positivity and inspiration to continue their wonderful practice efforts over the summer! Thank you parents for another incredible year, it is truly a blessing to be able to work with so many wonderful students and parents who feel like one big extended family! You are all treasures!
