Fundraiser kick off day!
Not too much happened today. Encore fundraising came in and hyped up my students in hopes of selling some awesome candles to raise money for the orchestra. A lot of the students were really excited....mostly they were excited at the possibility of getting cash prizes.
One thing I realized today: most middle school kids don't have the capabilities of understanding what it takes to be entered into a "regional" drawing. They were all excited at the thought of possibly winning $500 or $1000. Not fully understand that their chances are like winning the lottery...
Taught 5 6th graders how to play the double bass. IT WAS SO AMUSING. They're so tiny and seeing them hold these giant instruments just made my day. I love seeing their enthusiasm! They were all so super excited that I told them they could play in class.
