It\u2019s the site of one of the BISS Choir holiday performances. Judy wants to check out the actual performance area and make sure she knows exactly how to position her students for their performances. Simon has been the point person for the hotel and Rotary Club contacts. The choir will be performing at the Rotary Club Holiday Festival. They performed for the same festival last year, but it was a different hotel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WEDNESDAY, 10\/29\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Judy goes to school at her regular time. I travel over later for our final beginning band class day. We warmed up, reviewed the assignment, and then the students begin recording their video assignment. We\u2019re recording right up to the end of class, trying to get good performances for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a fun trimester working on this project. The students got a decent taste of what it\u2019s like to begin to learn to play a wind instrument. Several will probably find a way to continue on an individual basis. I\u2019ll miss the chance to work with them, but it will be nice to have two more days a week of freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TUESDAY, 10\/28\/14 I joined Judy early Tuesday at BISS for the beginning band class.
