All grades are learning components of a Melody. They will learn notes in the treble and bass clef, how to read and draw major scales, how to sing using Solfege syllables, and learn the Curwen hand signs. In addition, 7th and 8th graders will learn major key signatures, triads, and common chord progressions.
Throughout this unit, the students will practice these skills by singing songs such as His Cheeseburger, Another Day in Paradise, Lean on Me, and Seasons of Love.
In two weeks, the students will practice these same skills by playing the keyboard.
