4th Quarter Grading

Greetings FLI Choir,

Distance Learning has created some challenges for adapting our courses and FLI Choir is no exception.  We received word from Oregon Department of Education that our classes are not receiving letter grades, so I want to make clear what's expected to receive a passing grade this Quarter 4.   To receive a passing grade, each student must:

1.  Attend a minimum of 5 of the remaining 7 classes and participate in our discussion/activities.  Please do reach out if you are having internet connectivity issues, or if this requirement is an issue for you.  I will work with you to find another option.

2.  Satisfactorily complete a minimum of 5 of the remaining 7 Google Classroom weekly assignments.

Let me know if you have any questions.  

-Mrs. Riffel

Greetings FLI Choir! I look forward to starting this journey of online classes with you.  I've created this blog for easy communication.  I plan on sending you a Remind text whenever there is a new post, but you can always check it yourself by going to  https://flichoir.blogspot.com/    In case you aren't on the Remind, text @flichoi to 81010 (note that there is no "r" in @flichoi). Students and parents are welcome to do this.  There's a lot in this first post, but hopefully it will give you a complete understanding of choir will look like this next month. Individual Musical Activities/Video Thank you to those of you who have been emailing me videos of your individual musical endeavors.  Keep them coming! Perhaps you are considering making a video, but don't know what to do.  Here are some ideas: 1. Sing a song.  You can use a Karaoke track, sing a cappella, sing with your brother/sister/mom/dad, or accompany yourself 2. Play an instrument.  Perhaps

Days of the Week Project Update and Resume

Hey FLI Choir, Here is the Days of the Week song with updated lyrics.  Thanks for all the ideas based on what you've been up to.  I couldn't get in everything as there are only 7 days, but got a lot.  Yes, this is a rather goofy project - but...why not?!   Also, it's not too late to suggest lyrics. I could totally switch something out!

FLI Choir Session April 14, 2020

Image
Greetings FLI Choir Students, Tomorrow morning we will be meeting at 9am-10am on Google Meet. Link to meeting :   meet.google.com/hcf-cgdp-zjz  Discussion During our session we will talk about the effects of social media on us as individuals, and on our society.  Think about ways that social media benefits you and your community.  Also think about what might be a dark side to social media.  Together we will brainstorm ways to be smart about usage to have a balanced life - especially during this pandemic when we have hours of extra time on our hands. If we have time I will also teach you a short song. :)  If not, then it will happen next week. Reflections I so enjoyed reading your reflections on resilience and about your experiences at events at Lincoln HS.  I know it's sometimes annoying to have little assignments due, but it is very important for us as humans to spend time to reflect on our experiences.  Writing is a great way to organize our thoughts and even make
