Choir Syllabus
Mrs. Allington
Welcome to Choir!! I’m so excited you decided to join! Here are a few things we will be doing in class this year.
During the class period you will:
Sing
Play Instruments
Improvise (change melodies or rhythms to make them your own)
Compose (write your own music)
Read Music
Analyze Music
Evaluate Music
Connect to The Arts such as visual art and dance
Connect to History and Other Cultures
Materials
You will need a pencil, folder, and your assignment notebook every day. You will use your assignment notebook as a bathroom pass so make sure you bring it every day! Your folder and pencil will stay in the music room.
Concerts
Choir and Band are unique because we have the honor of being able to show off all the cool things we do in class for your family and friends! It really is a celebration of learning! Please put the following dates in your calendar. They are very important and will be part of your grade.
LBC Music Shirts
The LBC bands and choirs will be wearing LBC music shirts for all concerts. Attached is an order form for the t-shirt. If you have a shirt from last year, you may use it again this year. Cost of the shirts are $7.00.
Grading
Grades will be based on in-class work, participation, concerts, written tests and performance tests. We will not have homework. However, if you are absent, it is your responsibility to get the work you missed and finish it at home.
Classroom Expectations
Students are expected to be responsible, respectful, and safe in all of their specials as well as in the core classes. We will follow the expectations and consequences outlined in the student handbook.
