Teacher Betty has organized a field trip for the class on February 12th.   We will be performing several songs for the residents of the Old Soldiers Home in Orting.
Because of the drive, we need to leave co-op at 12:20pm.  Choir kids will need to miss third hour class for this field trip.  We will be back by 3:40pm.
We are also learning the chorus from Love One Another, along with sign language.  Another great opportunity to practice at home.

As I have loved you, love one another. 
This new commandment, love one another. 
By this shall men know ye are my disciples 
If ye have love, one to another.

Its A Wonderful World

We are starting to learn new songs in preparation for our next concert.  It would be great for the kids to practice singing the lyrics at home.

Its a Wonderful Word
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and for you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed the day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
But what they're really saying is I love you.

I hear baby's crying and I watched them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know 
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
Yes, I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Oh yeah!
