This week in Music:
The 6th grade classes are starting a research project on the Eras of Music. They will write a biography on one composer and research that composers music. Each group will then create a poster with the information about their era and present their project to the class. This project will take the whole week and is worth 100 points.
The 7th grade classes are learning about Musical Theatre. They will learn about the role of the composer, lyricist, choreographer and learn the difference between a stage adaptation and a film adaptation. They will also watch the Disney Movie Musical "Newsies."
The 8th grade classes will be presenting their World Music Projects. Later in the week, they will compose music on the computers using Super Duper Music Looper.
About Me
- Ms. Berman
- Hello! I am very excited for another great year at Lakeview! This will be my fifth year at Lakeview teaching general music, directing the choir, and co-directing the drama club and musical. I received a bachelor’s degree in music education at Illinois State University and a master’s degree in music education at Northern Illinois University. Prior to working at Lakeview, I taught for two years in Berwyn, IL. Outside of school, I am a member of New Classic Singers and I teach ballroom dance at Celebrity Dance Studio.
