Music Appreciation
Wednesday 1:00 -2:00
Rio Vista Church
Teacher: Lara Moore
6th - 12th grade
This class meets the requirements for a High School Fine Arts credit
$40 per month (payable by Semester)
Students will learn Music History and Music Appreciation in a fun, informative and interactive way. Students will gain an understanding and appreciation for music and how it relates to their world now. They will create power point presentations, shadow boxes, poster boards, dress up as a composer or other character from the time period to demonstrate their understanding of musical elements. Students will use class time to discuss and describe what they are learning by using games, art and written exercises individually and in groups.
There is little to no homework in this class other than projects which are due every other month.
If your child needs a fine arts credit, but does not enjoy a performance based class like choir or band, this class may be just what he or she needs!
I promise it will be fun! I have taught this class at Immanuel Lutheran and my students loved it!!! They loved using art to describe how the music moves them emotionally and enjoyed watching and listening to performances and even created some of their own music. Playing the games to review for tests was one of their favorite ways to prepare! Finally, they came up with the most creative and amazing power points and other kinds of presentations!
