Orchestra Announcement for the Week of October 13
Please project your voices and speak clearly:
  • Hi everyone! We are members of the Student Leadership Team. [EACH PERSON INTRODUCES THEMSELVES]
  • Check out this cool box! [HOLD UP SUGGESTION BOX] This is our brand-new Suggestion Box, and it’s a super important tool for our orchestra.
  • This box is for all of your ideas and thoughts about our orchestra. You can share a funny music joke, suggest a piece of music, or share an idea to make GTCYS better.
  • We have little pieces of paper right here. [HOLD UP PAPER] When you have an idea, you can write it down. Then, just fold it up and drop it right in! We’ll make sure your ideas are shared.
  • The best part is you don’t have to write your name so you can share whatever is on your mind. You can find our Suggestion Box right there [POINT TO THE LOCATION] So, if you have a great idea, remember the suggestion box is waiting!
