A Week in Photos: Highlighting Student Learning!
In Music this week, 1st grade students explored the “C.P.R.” Protocol, which stands for Create, Perform, and Respond using a web application called “Chrome Music Lab.” In this unit, students get to take creative risks and experiment with new ideas to develop their own musical sense! Please feel free to ask your students about the web app and create music alongside them!
