Bach reports~ February 10, 2009

Dylan and Matthew did a short one page report on Bach.

Dylan’s paper….

Bach’s temper was short. He once got in a arguement with one of his music student’s and called him a nannygoat. Bach worked for the duke then he wanted to quit and was sent to jail. His job was in music. He loved to write music. He loved to play the organ. Bach made the best music. Bach died at age 65 from a stroke.

Matthew’s paper….

Bach married twice. One of his wives was a cousin. He had 20 children in all. He loved the organ. He walked 200 miles to watch somebody play the organ. Johann Sebastian Bach loved to drink coffee and smoke his pipe. He went blind. He died at 65 by a stroke.

This is Matthew’s first paper. One problem I notice with him and need to always be on him about is putting capital letters where they don’t belong. We are going to write about some more famous people. I just haven’t picked who yet.
