Mrs. Halat: Music
Email: ehalat@ewrsd.k12.nj.us
In elementary school, general music is broken down into three assessed artistic processes: Creating; Performing; Responding. By actively Creating, Performing, and Responding, students will Connect to music.
For each artistic process, students will have a variety of assessment methods used for evaluation in this trimester course. Evaluations include:
● Active participation in formal and informal in-class performances
● Student created compositions and improvisations, at a grade appropriate level
● Student critique of musical work, including self, peers, and others
The Beginning of the Year (BOY) assessment will not be placed in the gradebook but will be used by teachers to both monitor and support progress and growth throughout the year.
Students will receive a standards based report card grade each Trimester in the three assessed artistic processes.
