Piano Unit Begins!!!

For the next two weeks, the students will learn how to play piano in General Music.  First they will learn to play simple songs in treble and bass clef individually.  Once they are comfortable performing in each clef solo, they will learn to play piano with both hands simultaneously.  For students who have played piano before, they will start on music at an appropriate level for them.  This unit concludes with a 20 point performance assessment and a 10 Point composition/performance activity.

This week in music class, the students will learn/understand components of a melody and analyze the form of various pieces of music.  By the end of this unit, students will be able to identify notes on the treble and bass clef, identify intervals, chords, and key signatures, and sing a variety of music. We will have a test on this information next week.  

Melody Test:  Thursday, Sept. 22
