音乐

低年级音乐
音乐-making in the 较低的学校 is an active process where children begin their journeys as singers, 乐器演奏家, 搬家公司, 和创造者. Students learn music similar to the way one acquires a new language; music is primarily taught by ear, with students experiencing and creating music before they learn to read and write musical notation. All students have access to a comprehensive and varied curriculum centered on popular music, 世界音乐, 以及器乐教学.
