Create!
Students will arrange, compose and create their own melodies, harmonies, lyrics and movements.
Routines
Classes begin with the appointing of a class Maestro, a leader in music who serves as an example of how to be safe, respectful, and responsible in music. Maestros help lead us in the day's games, songs, as well as help take instruments out and put them away. Together, with our Maestro, we'll sing our Classroom Song to remind us how to be rockstars in music (and maybe even put a fun twist on our song). At the end of class, Maestro's will receive a "Rockstar Slip," as well as choose a couple other classmates who they saw were following our expectations in music class.
