Music Notes!
From Mrs. Raynor
In the Classroom
Grades K, 1, and 2
Grades 3, 4, and 5
Grades 3, 4, and 5 will continue to practice the building blocks of rhythm and melody (especially on recorder.) But we will also begin to identify and perform expressive elements of music, such as tempo & dynamics. If your student has their recorder sitting at home, please be sure it's placed in their backpack for music on Monday's & Wednesday's!
Assessment Info
Grades 3, 4, and 5 will be assessed on expressive elements of music, such as tempo & dynamics. We will focus on identifying Italian music terms for various dynamics & tempo words. We will then practice using our knowledge of those terms when we perform. Students will be assessed on these concepts in early December.
