Music
The Diocesan music curriculum encourages students of all ages to explore many different areas of music. Here are some of the topics that I will be teaching to each grade this year:
- Performance techniques and proper behavior
- Developing personal connection to, and creation of, music
- Music theory and the foundations of Western music
- Familiarity with the instruments and history of the orchestra
- Aural analysis of different genres of music
- Investigation of other music cultures around the world
- Cross-curricular connections between music and other subjects
- Understanding the role of music in society and in the liturgy
Our Lady of Good Counsel Curriculum follows the guidelines set forth by the
Arlington Diocese Office of Catholic Schools.
