Fourth-grade Visits The Utah Symphony

Submitted by doug.lai on

We attended the Utah Symphony, it had beautiful music.  The concert musicians taught us that you can hear motion while they play.  The symphony was located at Maple Mountain High School.  I thought it was really fun because, the musicians played their music as smooth as cat's fur.  All Nebo School District fourth-graders were invited to the symphony.  We went on December 4, 2012.  We enjoyed going because they played so perfect.

Spring Lake Elementary Orchestra

Submitted by doug.lai on

On Thursday December 20th, Spring Lake students had the opportunity to listen to the sixth-grade orchestra. The sixth grade have been practicing hard three days a week all year before school. We are lucky to have Mrs. Emily Fringer as our orchestra teacher. The students performed several songs, which included Christmas songs.  Each student that announced the song was able to tell why it was their favorite.
