Students love music classes at Mary, Queen of Peace, and for good
reason! Students in grades PK and K explore musical concepts such as
rhythm and pitch through many singing and movement activities.
Materials such as Lummi sticks and Orff instruments provide endless
opportunities to learn these concepts and develop listening, singing and
rhythmic skills. To enhance the learning experience, boom whackers and
desk bells are used. As a result, the students learn notation, tempo,
and dynamics with much enthusiasm. The enjoyment of making music is one
of the most important goals achieved through years of music classes at
our school.
