Students will receive advance notification if the use of a cell phone is necessary for a lesson. Food and Drink: Open food/drink containers will not be allowed into the choir room. Water is the only beverage allowed on the choir risers. Grading Assessments vary according to the nine weeks. Students will be evaluated in the following areas: sight-singing, knowledge of individual vocal part, memorization, music history and literacy concepts, musical notation, vocal skills, and necessary music theory concepts. Students also will receive grades for classroom participation, written work, and attendance at concerts and outside rehearsals. Course Calendar Students and parents will receive a course calendar along with their First Day Packet. This calendar lists all required and elective events for the school year. Learning Resources Tutoring: Students may be asked to attend tutoring after school. In addition, peer tutoring is frequently utilized during class time to reinforce learning. Online resources: Students can find online recordings of music they are working on in class through YouTube, iTunes, and other music databases.
