ABOUT MUSIC CLASS
ABOUT MUSIC CLASS
We believe that music is best learned through experience. We teach music through a variety of different methods, and will incorporate kinesthetic activities, individual and collaborative games, and visual and aural challenges. Students will sing, move, and play a variety of instruments alone and together.

We encourage the importance of listening and mutual respect. Music class is a safe and supportive environment to try new things and experiment with new skills, such as improvising.

REWARD DAYS
REWARD DAYS
All students who consistently display our district's core values and make an effort to follow our music room expectations will receive a Reward Day at the end of each grading quarter. Students will vote on their favorite music games to play together that day. All game choices will help to enforce music concepts that we have learned in class, and provide a chance for collaboration and creativity!

OOPS SLIPS
OOPS SLIPS
When a student makes a choice that does not align with our music room expectations or district core values, it will count as a "strike" and will be recorded. Students who accumulate 5 strikes within a grading quarter will complete an alternate music review activity on their own during Reward Day. If multiple rules are broken within one class period that significantly disrupts the flow of class, an Oops slip will be sent home that describes the behavior and requests a parent signature.
