FIRST GRADE: SINGING
Singing is at the core of the music curriculum. Students had the opportunity to develop singing skills through chants, songs, and singing games. Students learned about the physical act of expressive singing, requiring breath support, good posture, and listening. They also participated in vocal training exercises in order to develop pitch accuracy and awareness of sound.
Besides singing with the whole class, students also sang songs in small groups in order to develop
performance skills and vocal independence.
