3) Explain what you have learned in a well
organized report.
Reading Extra Credit
Use page 112 in the Language Arts
Handbook to guide you as you write a book
review. Your book review must be on a
book you finished reading this school year.
Math Extra Credit
Correct your weekly math tests. This is
enough extra credit to raise anyone's grade.
Writing and Music Extra Credit
Visit www.nyphilkids.org and follow the
directions to make a homemade instrument.
Then write a report explaining how you built
the instrument, how to play the instrument,
and tell what family of instruments it would
belong to. Present your report and your
instrument to the class and collect your
points!
Complete the MusiQuest challenge at www.nyphilkids.org . After completing all four families of instruments, print the screen that shows a newspaper headline that reads:
"NY Phil Proudly Welcomes (Your Name) As Newest Orchestra Member"
If you are unable to print the newspaper screen, you can also print the INFO NOTEBOOK page that states that you completed 12 of 12 levels and turn it in for credit.

Write your own song about an Egyptian Pharaoh of your choice. For example, you could write about King Khufu and his pyramid. Unlike Steve Martin's, your song has to be based on the information we have actually learned about the Ancient Egyptians.
