Discovery Childhood Music Education classes are targeted for children grades 1-2. These engaging and playful classes are designed for children to both make music and understand music. Activities are based on the Orff Schulwerk approach to music and include speaking poems and chants, singing from a diverse repertoire of songs, playing pitched and unpitched instruments, and moving to music in structured and unstructured ways. Active music making is the core of the classes, developing fundamental aural, rhythmic and notation skills. Students will also have the opportunity to improvise simple melodies and accompaniments. The Discovery classes are designed to sow the seeds of life long music lovers.
Discovery classes are taught by music teachers with degrees in music education, as well as additional graduate work in the Orff Schulwerk approach to music making.
