Distance Learning, Week 4, Day 16

Tuesday, April 21, 2020--7:45 a.m.

Happy Tuesday Everyone!
Thanks for joining me on Google Hangout-Meet yesterday morning!  It was nice to see some of your smiling faces and great to hear what you were all doing this past weekend!  We tried to sing during our mini-music class, but the extra feedback was so great that we could barely hear each other.  Next time I think I have to assign students to sing a certain stanza.  If you missed yesterday's meet, don't worry...we will meet again on Friday, at the same time, 10:00 a.m.  (If I have to attend a meeting, I will change the time to a later time that same day).
Mahalo!  Have a wonderful day!
