Welcome to Classroom Music at Fairview Elementary!
From Kindergarten to Grade 6, all students attend Elementary Classroom Music, where they learn fundamental music concepts and apply this knowledge in many activities - listening, performing and creating.
Students in grades K - 5 receive one hour of instruction per week, presented in two 30 minute classes, except grade 5, which has one 60 minute class. 6th graders receive one 30 minute class per week; most also choose to receive additional music instruction by joining 6th Grade Band & Orchestra with Mr. Haglund and Ms. Buettner.
Classroom Music teaches:
• appreciation of music of varying styles and cultures
• singing a variety of folk and composed songs
• playing instruments
• dance
• music reading skills
• music terminology and concepts
I also encourage students in grades 3 through 6 to participate in Fairview's choir, the Singin' Eagles!
