A little bit about the music classroom:

In music class students will sing, move, listen, imitate, explore, experience, analyze, classify, create, share, perform, notate, read, improvise, cooperate, and most importantly HAVE FUN!!!! We strive to create innovative, engaging lesson plans which include singing, playing instruments, and moving in each of our lessons. Music is important here at Dolvin Elementary. Studies show that students who receive music perform better on tests involving reading, math, problem solving, and logical thinking.

2nd Graders - In the Hall of the Mountain King

Naughty Peer Gynt ventured into the underground kingdom of the trolls where he found himself in a bit of trouble!  Students listened the the story of "In the Hall of the Mountain King". Without hearing the ending, they had to listen to Edvard Grieg's indcidental music and decide what the music told them and create their own ending with a matching picture. Some thought he escaped, while others thought we was captured!
