Grade Three

GRADE THREE MUSIC

Students in Grades 2 and 3 will come to music 30 minutes, twice per week. We will learn beat, rhythmic and melodic notations through singing, listening, writing, movements, and games. We will use music to celebrate the liturgical and school events of the year. We will explore and respect music from other cultures and historical periods, particularly aboriginal music.

Primary Choir

Students in grade 2 and 3 are welcome to join the school primary choir as an extra-curricular activity. Choir rehearsals are held outside of class time. Please check the primary choir website for details.

Evaluation:

Objective evaluation of knowledge, and subjective evaluation of participation and performance will be based on the following progress levels:

• Exceeding Expectation
• Meeting Expectation
• Not Yet Meeting Expectation
