3rd Grade Music
Third grade students explore playing on various barred instruments, such as xylophones, metallophones, and even marimbas, hand drums, boomwhackers, and multiple auxiliary percussion instruments, as well as honing in their ability to sing both on their own and in a choir setting.
4th Grade Music
Fourth grade students continue with many concepts learned in third grade and take their musicianship to the next level by being introduced to performance on wind instruments, specifically the recorder. Students at this age group put all the fundamentals together to read sheet music, strengthen their ability to play aurally, and perform on their instrument at an introductory level.
5th Grade Music
In 5th grade, students get to choose to participate in band, orchestra or choir. Information goes home with students in the spring of their 4th grade year where students are asked to select their musical path for the upcoming school year. Students get a chance to test drive the many types of instruments available with our representatives from Ted Brown Music, which rents musical instruments to students in our district. Beginning instrument choices include: flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, percussion, violin, viola, and cello.

In 5th grade, every student participates in either choir, band or orchestra. Ted Brown Music offers rentals to our students who choose music classes that require an instrument, with pick ups, drop offs and repairs from the convenience of the school, though, students may choose to rent or purchase an instrument elsewhere. Questions/Concerns: reach out to Michael Giuliani, Music Coordinator for the district.
