Music
Students at Salem Elementary get to have music class one time each week,
for 45 minutes. Students are
engaged in a wide variety of activities, and learn in a hands-on environment. Students get to sing,
play instruments, action songs, and rhythm games. Students develop cooperation and teamwork skills, as
they work together to complete the various activities offered during music class. Musical instruments
were created to imitate the human voice, so all students are encouraged to sing, both as a group, and
individually. Finally, students learn how to appreciate music, as they learn about the history and many
styles of music.
