Our First two Weeks of Music!
Friday, 9/6/25
Music classes in our MRV elementary schools are off to a great start! Kindergarten through 2nd grade students are being “tuneful, beat-ful, and artful” as we implement John Feirabend’s First Steps in Music and Conversational Solfege curricula, combined with my own Orff influenced approach. This particular combination of influences will ensure a systematic approach to introducing a range of material that will prepare students for being able to understand and work with music concepts in an informed and creative way. Experience first, then analyze. Our 3rd through 6th grade students are similarly engaged in material that is leading them toward music literacy, creativity, and, ultimately, composition. All of our students are getting a healthy portion of creative movement activities that serve them in a variety of ways on their journey to becoming musical people!
