The music program at Hedgcoxe elementary focuses on the child's natural singing voice as the primary instrument to develop musical literacy.  Many experiences will be provided in the areas of singing, reading notation and writing notation, moving/dancing, creating, playing classroom insturments, and listening to musical masterworks.  These experiences provide opportunities for the development of musical skills and conceptual understanding.  The learning sequence is carefully tied to children's developmental growth.

As part of the music curriculum, children in grades 1 through 5 have the opportunity to attend a live fine arts performance.  This may include puppet theatre, a musical play, a symphony concert, or concerts provided by the band, choir an dorchestra at the senior high level.  Information will be sent home as dates for these events are finalized.
