Welcome to Music Class Grades 3-5! Each week we work on theory, learn about a composer, and rehearse for our concerts. On Mondays and Tuesdays, 3rd & 4th grades work on theory, and on Thursdays, we work on our concert pieces.
On Mondays and Tuesdays, Fifth grade works on applying what they've learned to their concert pieces, and on Wednesdays and Thursdays, practice ringing with their hand-chimes and bells.
