In this course, I will be offering a 16 week General Music class to 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade students. In this class, students will learn the basics of music, such as rhythms (note names and note values), instruments and note letter names. Flash cards, posters and audio/video recordings will be used to aid in learning.

I taught elementary General Music classes for 20 years before deciding to stay home with my son. I am passionate about Music and Christian education. I look forward to this opportunity to share music from a Christian perspective with your child!
