Music
This introductory level music class begins the year by learning about rhythm through percussion instruments. Students perform and compose their own original percussion pieces and then continue to improve their music literacy through learning wind instruments. Students first learn the basics of how to play the instrument then learn to perform together as an ensemble. Students then finish out the year by learning about movement through music. In this unit we explore various activities such as body percussion and dance. A major component of this course is singing choral music each class, in addition to singing with the CDS choir and other music classes. This choir performs at concerts and festivals throughout the year.
