Grade 1

(Scroll down to the bottom of the page to hear examples of the students' music.)

In Grade 1 we continue to learn to be "tuneful, beatful, and artful."


We learn to expand our singing voice range and to match short pitch patterns and to keep a steady beat, even while we're singing!

We continue to learn about instruments:
