"Giving the gift of music
to children is when they can sing expressively by themselves". Your child is participating in a
variety of activities in vocal music classes. Every grade level has music two
times a week for 30 minutes. This activities in music are sequentially designed
to help you child develop melodic and rhythmic skills through singing, reading,
writing, creating and enjoying the many different types of music. Singing
activities include songs from our American folk tradition, songs from around the
world, patriotic songs, holiday songs, folk dances and singing games. Your child
will listen to and observe music written in various styles and will become
familiar with many kinds of performing soloists and groups. Many connections are made
between music and your child's social studies and language arts units. Making
connections allows a child to know that music is not only singing, but has a
direct connection with history and culture around the world. Webster Hill Chorus is offered
to all 4th and 5th grade students. Rehearsals are at 7:45 AM on Wednesdays in
the auditorium. You are always welcome to come to the music room!
