4/15*: Today, I would like for you to reflect on the last month since we’ve been out of school. What music/song has been a comfort to you? Has there been a song or piece of music that has brought you some peace or joy? It can be any length...and genre...slow...fast...it just needs to be something that speaks to you personally.
Here is one that has really lifted my spirits when I’m down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfaOeiqdsm4. The lyrics really speak to me and give me hope that, even in this troubling time, things can always get better.
Once you have thought of a song, please fill out the Google Form (link below) to tell me about that song/piece of music.

* Yes, this is the same assignment that I gave the choir, so if you are in both classes, you only need to complete it once.
