Part 3 - Line 4a
MUSIC- STUDENTS PROVIDED EDUCATIONAL EXPOSURE TO MUSICAL PROGRAMMING IN EACH GRADE. STUDENTS IN GRADES K THROUGH 3 RECEIVED GENERAL MUSIC EDUCATION. ALL STUDENTS IN GRADES 4 AND 5 HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY A BAND OR ORCHESTRA INSTRUMENT. STUDENTS IN GRADES 6 THROUGH 8 CONTINUE THEIR MUSICAL LEARNING BY PARTICIPATING IN THE SCHOOL BAND OR ORCHESTRA. CLASSROOM ASSISTANT- GRADES K THROUGH 2 RECEIVE ADDITIONAL ADULT PRESENCE IN EACH CLASSROOM THROUGH PART TIME CLASSROOM ASSISTANTS. WITH CLASSROOMS AVERAGING 25 STUDENTS, HAVING ADDITIONAL ADULTS IN THE ROOM TO ASSIST WITH LESSONS, SMALL GROUP, AND SOLO ACTIVITIES IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE EACH STUDENT HAS TIME WITH AN ADULT AND TO RECEIVE THE HELP THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN THESE FOUNDATIONAL GRADES. DRAMA AND MOVEMENT- STUDENTS THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN DRAMA AND MOVEMENT. THIS PROGRAM IS PARTICULARLY MEANINGFUL TO STUDENTS WHO DO NOT EXCEL IN THE RIGID AND STRUCTURED STYLINGS OF MUSIC EDUCATION. DRAMA AND MOVEMENT HAS A FREEDOM AND AN EMOTIONAL LEARNING COMPONENT THAT CAN BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL. PROVIDING DRAMA AND MOVEMENT IN ADDITION TO MUSIC MEANS THAT STUDENTS ARE ABLE TO FIND THEIR PLACE IN ARTS EDUCATION.
