The hymn for the May Crowning is 'Thou That Art so Fair and Bright' from the 13th century.  It will be coming home in your folders and we will also work on it in class.  We will use music for the procession, so you do not need to memorize the stanzas.  I will email you a recording of the work so that you can practice at home.  God bless, Mrs. C.
