Friday Sept. 12- A Day

A busy, yet fun day. On the plus side, I got to listen to a lot of good music. On the downside, I listened to the Backstreet Boys too many times and now I have their song stuck in my head!

A1- Adv. HAVPA- The students shared the songs they brought in and did a good job of connecting those songs to the music terms they learned. We filled out a music listening guide to "I Want it That Way" by BSB. Did you know that song is 10 years old?!?!? Next week.....DANCE!

A3- Sports Writing- Busy day. We did an article review over the careers of Vince Young and Matt Leinart. We picked fantasy football teams as the Thundercats look to overtake the Georgia Crew. The students had a quiz over Ch. 1-3 of the Sports Writing book and Caitlin introduced our next sport, soccer. Next week is more soccer and we begin on the feature story.

A4- HAVPA- More songs and more fun. The song they chose for the listening guide was "Can't Believe It" by T-Pain featuring Lil Wayne. Ms. Gaines showed us a website where people sign the lyrics to songs such as "Waiting on the World to Change" by John Mayer and "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilaria. Pretty cool.

I hope everyone has a nice weekend and Go Cats!!
