Music class is fun and educational for all students! Music has a significant positive impact on brain development in children, enhancing cognitive, emotional and social skills. Music engages multiple brain areas, strengthening neural pathways and improving memory, language skills, and motor coordination. It also fosters emotional intelligence, creativity, and self-expression.
In K, 1 and 2, students focus on experiencing music in a variety of ways - through instruments, movement, singing and listening. They also learn how to create their own music and develop their personal tastes and opinions.
In grades 3-5, students continue to expand their music knowledge and experience while also incorporating music theory such as note reading, rhythms and composition. 4th and 5th graders also learn the basics of ukulele playing and chord reading.
