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.

What's Happening in the Music Room!

Our first week back we had a blast "showing" our students the do's and don'ts in the music room through a video special report.


 


To start the year, students in K-5 participated in various welcome back to school songs and an improvisational activity involving the Boomwhackers.



In addition, music students were asked what does music mean to you. check out some of the incredible answers students created below.




We are currently in the middle of our first unit, Music is a Language.  Our primary focus is on beat, meter, and rhythm.  Our students are having a blast incorporating children's literature and music during class.  More pictures and videos on their way!
