Description:

Did you know that studying music improves study habits, increases IQ and improves test scores? Music Workshop is a three-part sequential program that teaches the fundamentals of music in a fun and engaging manner. We will be introducing students to music theory, great composers, and musical instruments through age appropriate songs, dance, games, and through playing instruments. It is aligned to state and national standards for each age and grade level. In each level, concepts previously taught will be reviewed while new concepts are being introduced.

Each level contains two years’ worth of material, so students joining the class for a second year will have all new material to learn.

Music Workshop C is the third in this series. Through this class, students will develop skills in music reading and performance, sing rounds and partner songs, and be introduced to singing harmonies. They will also be introduced to music and instruments of other cultures and languages and play recorders, bucket drums and ukelele. Students will prepare performance pieces and share their musical accomplishments during Connections’ Christmas and spring choir concerts. With each additional year in class, students will acquire deeper and more thorough knowledge and skills in music.
