We are off to a great start for the 2017-2018 school year in the KPS Music Room! Students are learning how to create and express music using their very own body through singing, dancing, body percussions, and performing on instruments.
Music is an excellent tool for students of all ages to explore their creativity, show expression, and learn with other children. Music incorporates of the academic subject areas: math, history, reading, language, science, technology, and even engineering! This year we will learn music in a fun-filled, expressive manner using several instructional methodologies including Kodaly, Orff, and Suzuki!
Be sure to ask your students about the music they've created weekly, they may be willing to teach you what they've learned! In addition to sharing their knowledge, our families will have opportunities to create "Family Musical Moments" that I will send home frequently as an extension from our lessons. So be sure to ask your students about Music!
