Classroom Music at Meadow Heights is well underway! Thank you for the opportunity to spend valuable time with your children. We intend to maximize our 30 minutes a week. As usual, a lot will be accomplished in the coming months!

Throughout the year, once the children have gone a little deeper into the curriculum, your classroom teacher will provide you with links to access your child’s Song pdfs and backtracks.

Thanks again to our PTA for choosing to support Classroom Music with Myriad / Music Matters at Meadow Heights.

Overview & Enhancements: 2021-2022 Myriad/Music Matters Curriculum

The Myriad / Music Matters Classroom Curriculum is especially tailored for Kindergarten to 4th Grade students. Music education provides a forum for team-building, ensemble & solo skills, learning a new language, diction, reading and visual tracking, musical literacy, dictation, ear-training, developing the singing voice, breathing techniques, hand-eye coordination, Ukulele Foundations, Orff pedagogy, mallet/hand percussion instruments, performance poise, and self evaluation. All of the materials and instruments are chosen and designed to be fun and success-based so that the students view themselves as informed, capable, literate musicians before they enter chorus or band beyond 4th grade and into middle school / high school years.

Meadow Heights will do pool testing every Monday, from 8:00-11:00 am outside of the classroom in the hallway.

To get started, please fill out the consent form with your permission to perform a COVID-19 pooled test for your student at Meadow Heights. This process should take no more than 5 minutes to complete using a computer or a smartphone. Students who have consent after 12:00 each Friday will participate in Pooled Testing the following week.

The school Site Council is an elected or selected group of representatives of the school's staff and parents. This team will review, give feedback and provide recommendations on the Single Plan for Student Achievement for the school. They will ensure goals and improvement strategies are measurable based on data. We currently have two parents who are interested in Site Council and are in need of one more parent.
