Grade 2 and 2/3 parents, I am sorry for the squeaks and noise but your children are reading music! And owning it.

Grade 2 and 2/3 performance
For the IRC carol sing-a-long/PJ Day, Room 204 composed and performed their four-part ostinato in a jazz carol arrangement. Room 206 taught the school to sing “Sing Noel” and accompanied us on mallet instrument.
In a reflection
Mr. Friesen’s visit
Mr. Friesen, a music tech and composition guru, came in from the TDSB board office to help us with our GarageBand project. In December, Chris Thornborrow, the composer for this project, also came to work with us. Lucky!
Guitar Club
Guitar Club ready to perform at the I.R.C. Carol Sing-a-long. We rocked. Just in case you’re wondering, it was pajamas day.
Keyboard Corner
There are no stated learning objectives in the keyboard corner. Each student gets solo creative time. It’s also a great place to chill out after a tumultuous recess.
I.R.C. Improv. Night
February 18th at 6:30pm is I.R.C.’s Improv. Night! Grades 3-6 students will be featured as well as the Improv Troupe. Here are pictures of Grade 3s improvising and creating new music with movement.
Blowin in the Wind
Some of Guitar Club accompanying Quinn singing “Blowin’ in the Wind” at the Remembrance Day Assembly. Gorgeous.
