Royerton Elementary Music Mrs. Morris is our school's music teacher. Music concepts, skills, and techniques are presented in a variety of ways at each grade level. Historical periods and genres are studied and discussed with the songs we listen to and sing. Music demands that students be active participants by singing, playing instruments, movement, dance, composing, and creating. Even a listening activity requires student involvement, since listening requires focused attention.
Music is a lifelong learning experience whether as a performer or a consumer listener.
Singing reinforces proper speech and breathing skills. Playing instruments aid hand-eye coordination. Listening requires focused attention and helps to increase attention span. Movement and dance benefit coordination and locomotor skills. Choir is an extra curricular activity that allows 4th and 5th grade students to develop choral skills and music reading skills.
