Musikgarten ® K-5th Grade

 Musikgarten’s® Music Makers: In the Wild!

Ages: 5-6 Year Olds

Through music, children learn about animals, plants, and the environment! Children join in improvised and structured movement, play instruments, sing, and participate in guided listening activities.  The students work with written musical patterns and create their own simple songs. This developmentally sound approach to music literacy builds symbolic thinking, concentration, memory, and self-expression. Families receive CDs with digital download, songbooks, posters, game pieces, and a parent guidebook.  

Thursdays from 4:40 – 5:20 pm
