Scope and Sequence

As we are preparing to head back to school in September, one of the things I like families to know is the overarching learning points we are working on targeting.  What is your child learning in music?  Here is a simple chart outlining their learning.  Thank you Jessie Powell @musicandmotive for this gorgeous chart!

The Drum Musical

The Drum - A Mini-Musical based on a Tale of Generosity
By Sally Albrecht and Jay Althouse
Recording Orchestrated by Tim Hayden

Performances on Wednesday, May 28, 2025 

Celebration of the Arts Performances K-3 1:00-1:40; Gr. 4-5 2:00-2:45 pm / Evening Gr. 4/5 ONLY.  6:00-6:45 pm.  Doors will open at 5:30.

PARTS: Auditions are complete and student parts have gone out just before spring break.  Please ask your child what part they have.  Everyone has a part whether it is part of the villager chorus or a solo or small speaking part.  Some students did not receive the parts they wanted and the decisions were made with the Grade 4/5 team based on our musical needs and the student's audition performance.   Our main lead character is Jordan and congratulations to Harsehajdeep and Curran on your amazing auditions!
