Cayuga

= At [|Cayuga Elementary School] =

Cayuga's band program is small but flourishing. We offer a variety of instruments: flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, and trombone. The music students receive a 45-minute music lesson every Monday and participate in two concerts every year. They also receive music theory instruction at their weekly lessons and are loaned a school instrument. What an amazing opportunity!

As the year draws to a close, students may be concerned about their grades in music class. Ms. Donahue offers several options of different essays and projects that students can complete to earn extra credit. Students can earn up to ten points of extra credit by completing the following assignments. Each assignment is worth 5 points on your final grade.

Extra Credit Options:


 * Write an essay on your instrument
 * Write an essay on a song or composer we are studying in class
 * Write your own melody for your instrument (at least eight bars)
 * Draw and label the parts of your instrument
 * Think up your own project and have it approved by Ms. Donahue
