General Music with Mrs. Isleman and Ms. Scrom   

"Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy."

                                                                                                                                              - Ludwig van Beethoven

Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready to learn new things! I believe music is a great tool to teach cultural diversity, while providing a hands-on learning experience. In the music classroom, we will learn many songs from different cultures. Students will learn by playing on instruments, singing, and dancing. Through performing these songs, we will learn about many traditions and customs from around the world!

Why do we learn music?

- Music involves all subjects, including math, art, science, literacy, and history.

- It is physical and makes us move

- It is abundant and always around us

- We connect and reflect

- It is something every child can succeed in, and it is fun to do

- Music is life
