The Yoshida Brothers

We are traveling to Japan today to check out two really cool brothers. They play a traditional instrument called the Shamisen. Their names are Ryoichiro and Kenichi Yoshida, but they are known as The Yoshida Brothers.

We will be listening to their music and watching some of their music videos in class. Click on the blue links above the picture to learn more about these brothers, their instruments, and Japan and it's wonderful culture. 

May I Learn to be Silent

Each year our county participates in an Honors Chorus weekend. Each school get to bring their top five singers to the concert. Our representatives this year were Ahriah, Evan, and Elijah from 4th grade and Destiny and Alaina from 5th grade. Here is a video of them singing a song from their concert called 'May I Learn to be Silent'.
