During Grades 5 and 6 we will be working on some of the same musical skills and concepts from Grades 1-4, with even more added precision and complexity. Here are some examples:
Singing/playing in tune while holding their own part within an ensemble
Showing understanding of blend and balance within an ensemble
Moving our musical knowledge onto the ukulele
Create musical ideas from feelings, memories, imagination, and more
Point out and describe different musical styles and genres
All of these skills and concepts will be learned a variety of ways, such as through games, reading and writing, singing songs, and playing of instruments.
Music learning is cyclical, meaning we will go through all of these skills and concepts, (and more), repeatedly throughout the year.
