Grade School Music Memories
- We listened to Susan’s Michael Jackson’s Off the Wall album during lunchtime one
day in the 5th grade.
-Secret Santa gifts that I received- K-Tel’s Wings of Sound in 6th and
John Cougar’s American Fool in 8th.
-Our second grade teacher Miss M would sometimes bring in
her guitar and play for us and we’d also occasionally sing songs like” Friends
Are Like Flowers”.
-Our class sang John Lennon’s” Imagine” during a school
assembly/show.
-For an art project in 6th or 7th
grade we had to pick out an album cover to draw. I chose Grease which at the time I liked but no longer did a few years
later.
-A Blondie record, the one with” The Tide is High” on it,
was playing at Nancy’s birthday/slumber party.
-The church group did the play Bye, Bye Birdie in the early 1980s. Mom saw this on Broadway when
Paul Lynde and Gene Rayburn were in the cast. She has that Playbill.
-We went on 2 trips to the Garden State Arts Center. Both
were religious type events- a music group and a play (musical?). Mom got the
record of the former.
- 4th grade plays- My class did Shenandoah; originally it was going to
be Oklahoma. Mike’s class did The Sound of Music.
