After much deliberation, Sammy and I finally set a schedule with the Buckman Elementary School! We are going to be teaching the students once a week for an hour. Sammy printed out fliers and sign-up sheets so we are looking forward to seeing the students sign up! Today, the two of us went to Buckman and had a chance to see the kids and staff. We talked about our instruments, explained the parts to it (mouthpieces, head joints, etc.) and performed a short duet of the "Star Spangled Banner". We were thrilled to see that the students seemed to be genuinely excited and eager to learn! When we asked them if they had ever seen or heard of our instruments, almost all of their hands shot up in the air. We were so relieved that the kids seemed interested and are looking forward to getting started on the lessons!
