Music
Music is a means in which children learn more about God and creation. Music appeals to the whole person by serving as a doorway into the individual’s heart (emotions) and mind (intellect). When children learn over 100 new songs per year through listening, role, and reading, they are using a language-based approach to sing and make music. Our curriculum incorporates singing, literacy, instruments, and movement. Additionally, it is based off of the seven elements of music:
- Melody
- Harmony
- Rhythm
- Timbre
- Texture
- Form
- Expressive Elements

We offer a robust curriculum of:
Line, Shape, Form, Space, Texture, Value, Color
