You can check out </span><a href="http://www.musictheory.net/"><span style="font-family:arial;">http://www.musictheory.net/</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> to see the first few lessons. </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We took a quiz on the 22<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">nd</span> and I just got done grading them with mixed results. Some students did very well and some did very poorly. I'm thinking of splitting the group into two: one who have mastered the basics and one who needs more time to get the basics down. I'll let you know what happens! </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We've also been learning some contemporary Christian songs such as Blessed Be Your Name, Take My Life and Lord, I Lift Your Name on High. </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Stay tuned!
