Algonquin Middle School sixth graders in Ms. Legutki's band class are hard at work every week learning their instruments.
At a recent full band rehearsal the students went over warm ups that included long tones, a mini scale and various scale patterns.
While they were playing, Ms. Legutki had the students increase their speed to see how well they could maintain playing together at a faster pace.
She ended up going much faster then she thought because the students were doing so well.
At the end of the rehearsal the students played a fun song while they walked around the room.
The 6th grade band is looking forward to performing for family and friends at their concert this fall!
