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.

Week 3 updates in the music room!

I am so excited to announce that I have all of my classes uploaded into Seesaw and hope to record a special message to you with our music goals for the year. In addition, all students have been loaded into Class Dojo to help promote our positive music behavior. 

Both the second and third grade musicals are occurring this first semester; therefore, we will begin working on our songs in class and tying them into the new Georgia music standards. Notification for auditions will be coming home in the next few weeks. In addition, we will house song lyrics and audition scripts on this website to help students prepare at home. 

Chorus will begin after Labor Day. We will rehearse on Thursdays from 2:30 - 3:30. Mrs. Polaski will be working with me as the co-director again this year and we can't wait to begin. A school messenger will go home with sign up details as soon as they are live. 

As always, reach out with any questions! This is going to be a GREAT year!

Welcome back everyone! I am so excited to start the year off with our "SUPER" musicians! Afterall, music is OUR superpower! Looking ahead, we will be updating the website with all of our dates for musicals this year. In addition, we will kick off chorus the first Thursday following Labor Day. Notification will be sent home to all 4th and 5th grade students within the next few weeks. You are always welcome to reach out with questions via email at endicott@fultonschools.org. 4th and 5th grade students will also begin playing recorders in both music classes. Letters will be sent home with more information. And finally, we will keep you in the loop through regular Twitter notifications, blog posts here, and Seesaw! We hope to have all students connected in Seesaw by the end of August. Please follow me on Twitter @EndicottSpot and Instagram @dolvinmusic and consider subscribing to the feed on this blog.
