Welcome to Music

Curriculum

Concepts covered in K-5 music classes are rhythm, tempo, pitch, expression, melody and form.  All grades also learn music theory, liturgical music, cultural music and different musical styles.  Working with each grade level, I strive to implement current curriculum in core subjects within the music class whenever possible.

My Philosophy

It is my belief that every child has musical ability.  Music is a vital part of the student academic experience.  Musical education is an important component of a student's learning and success. Music gives the students a chance for self-expression, which helps build self-esteem.  Teamwork skills are enhanced when they work as a group to bring a musical masterpiece together.  Music is a gift from God to be treasured, nurtured and encouraged to grow.
