At Waverly Belmont Elementary, we offer a variety of after school clubs for K-4th grade students. Of the many we have, there are 3 Music related clubs geared for instrumentalists and actors and singers. The first club is Ukulele Club which is for students in 2nd-4th grade. In the Ukulele Club, students will bring home their own Ukulele and learn how to properly maintain their instrument, learn chords and songs, learn strumming patterns, and learn about the history of the Ukulele. There is an informal recital at the end of the semester to celebrate all of our learning. The Beginner group will be on Mondays from 3-4pm starting September 11th. The Intermediate group (for students who took Ukulele last year or previous private lessons) will meet on Thursdays from 3-4pm starting September 7th. Registration forms are below and are due by September 1st to Mrs. Walle.
The second club is Acting UP which is a musical theater program designed for elementary school students grades 1-4. Our mission is to provide children with a creative outlet, prepare youth for real life performance experiences, and produce quality musical theater experiences. Although Acting UP is an outside company, I will be working along with the staff and students everyday as the Music Director. Acting UP will meet on Tuesdays from 3-4:30pm, and will add Wednesdays to each week starting January. *In order to register for Acting UP, there is a mandatory audition that will take place on Tuesday August 29th from 3-5:15pm in the WB Music Room. Please fill out Audition forms and return it to Mrs. Walle by Friday August 25th.
The third club is ROCKSTAR which is run by an outside company where students will learn to play a rock band instrument in a group. Students K-4 are invited! For more information, go to https://www.waverlybelmontpto.org/after-school-clubs/
Welcome back students and families! Hope you all had a wonderful summer with your friends and families! I had an exciting summer traveling to NYC, LA, San Diego, Michigan (Traverse City) and also enjoyed lots of time being home here in Nashville where I could often be found playing on my ukulele. :) Thank you for those who stopped by to say hello on our Roster Reveal night last Thursday. If you missed it, no worries-- there is an Open House this upcoming Thursday 8/10 at 6pm for K-1 and 7pm for 2-4th grade families. I will be in my room so please feel free to stop by and say hello! In the meantime, here is a little tour of our WB Music Room: Our students' Music Creation Oasis. I will be doing my best to post important dates and information regarding your child's music classes and music related school events (ie: field trips, concerts, clubs) so you have all the necessary information. Your student will also have access to many resources on this website that will allow her/him to review and practice materials learned in class. If there are any questions, please feel free to email me anytime at [email protected] Have a great school year! -Mrs. Walle |
