Choir and Elementary Music
Choir!!
Choir students also learn how to work as a team in a group ensemble setting. They learn how to hear their parts in harmony, how to read and sing music including rhythms and note names.
Choir is a team class, teaching teamwork and following directions. If a student does not do their part, practicing their music and parts at home, then they have a direct impact on the rest of the team (choir). Unlike sports, music can be continued well into a musician's golden years.
Additionally, it trains the brain and develops new neural pathways, and often times increasing the student's IQ!
parents are welcome to join for free!!!!
Elementary Music
Music teaches children teamwork, creativity, to use their brains in ways that aren't touched by ANY other activity. It teaches children to regulate their emotions, and to have confidence in themselves.
Elementary Music exposes students grades K through 5 to the fundamentals of music, including learning to count rhythms, play basic instruments like group percussion or recorder, music history, cultural music around the world, and integrating music and movement.
Students learn the fundamentals of music, are exposed to music in cultures all around the world, to use their bodies along with the music which enhances their co-ordination for future endeavors, and how to play instruments teaching them not only cognitive skills such as counting and adding, but also how to use their lungs and fingers and both sides of their brains at the same time.
The ancient Greek and Roman philosophers that our entire education system is structured after believed that music was MORE important in a child's education than athletics. While American society does not hold the same values, incorporating music into your student's music education will irrefutably provide benefits to not only their academics, but to their overall life.
