7/13/2020

0 Comments

 
 Music and literacy go hand in hand. Some of the very first books we are read to as babies are sung because it helps us remember new words and stories. This week complete the series of challenges below to put your creativity to the test and by the end of the week you will have your own instrument and maybe even have started a band! Can’t wait to HEAR all about it. 

Email us at info@tetonliteracy.org with any questions or call us at 733-9242. 

  1. Monday: Complete 20 minutes in IXL in reading or math. Did you know that kids lose up to 2 months of reading and math skills in the summer? By completing your 20 minutes of IXL, you are STOPPING the summer slide!
  2. Tuesday: Check out the jamming Musical Instruments video below and leave a comment with your favorite instrument!
  3. Wednesday: Go to www.epic.com and read “Acoustic Rooster and his Backyard Band.” It doesn’t matter how old you are, this is such a fun story! Log those minutes reading at tclib.org!
  4. Thursday:  Pick up a Grab and Go Art Kit from the library. What will you make this week?
  5. Friday: Build your own Musical Instrument from the video you watched on Tuesday! I made a drum! I am going to get my friends to make instruments too and start a band!
  6. Saturday: Time to put that creative brain to use! Write a song and perform it with your friends and use your musical instruments! Bonus brave points if you video tape it and tag TLC on instagram!
  7. Sunday: Complete 20 minutes in IXL in reading or math! It takes a lot of dedication to practice your academic skills in the summer. We are impressed!

We can’t wait to hear about what challenges you complete this week! Don’t forget to leave a comment below!
