Music HR1

Course Description

 

Students have been  introduced to simple musical concepts using Music and the Brain curriculum. Activities include singing, clapping rhythms, movement, playing percussion instruments and bells, listening, finger exercises and music games. Students analyze each piece by studying musical notation and eventually get to play each piece on the keyboards. The ultimate goal of each lesson is for students to become comfortable with musical concepts through engaging repertoire, and to reinforce strong listening skills.

Participation Rubric

A copy of the participation rubric is attached for your reference. This rubric is filled out by the music teacher at the end of each quarter. Please note that 50% of the music grade is based on participation, so it is really important that students hand in all assignments, answer questions, participate in discussions and practice their instruments during class.
