4th Grade at Coleman gets 40 minutes of music each week.

An overview of the concepts we focus on in 4th Grade Music:

• 2/4, 3/4, 4/4 time signatures
• Dotted half note, sixteenth notes, half rest, whole rest (rhythm)
• Pentatonic scale, standard notation on a staff (pitch)
• AB, ABA, AABA form
• Performing a canon
• The timbre of instrument families
• Performing with expression

We also typically start recorders in 4th grade. They cost $2. Miss Nystedt is open to a payment plan or if a student needs to borrow a school recorder (don't worry, it's been disinfected). Please look for the note that Miss Nystedt sends home.
