Hi Grade 7s,

Ms. Pontalti says that she will try to make it to band today, but she is still feeling quite ill. She wanted me to pass along the message that she misses you all and hopes to be back soon! It is also so important to continue practicing with your instrument at home… you don’t want to loose any progress or forget any of the skills you have learned! Please practice #16, #19, and #26 from your music books.

See you soon,

-Ms. Ward
