This music program is age-appropriate and sequential. Over the course of the school year, the following skills are learned, reinforced, and expanded upon with more complexity over time. Although each weekly lesson has a main focus with clear objectives; elements from most, if not all, of the categories are touched upon each time. Therefore, this is the general list that includes the material that Pre-K- 2 at St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic School will study. Students are assessed during each music class by teacher observation. #1 Singing, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music #2 Performing on instruments, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music #3 Improvising melodies, variations, and accompaniments #4 Composing and arranging music within specified guidelines #5 Reading and notating music #6 Listening to, analyzing, and describing music #7 Evaluating music and music performances #8 Understanding relationships between music, the other arts, and disciplines outside the arts #9 Understanding music in relation to history and culture #10 Understanding music in relationship to spirituality, prayer, and Catholic values, customs, and traditions |
