Our goal is to start loving music at a young age. We will learn how to sing, play rhythm instruments, and other early skills of musicianship. We also will learn how to use music to worship God.
Children’s Choir on Palm Sunday 2011
Elementary Choir
Wednesdays, 6:00-7:00pm
The Elementary Choir is for grades 1-6. At this age the children are learning or already know how to read – this gives us a wonderful opportunity to learn how to read music at the same time! We will learn how to read notes and rhythms out of the hymnal and other pieces of music. We will also learn how to use our singing voices and play rhythm instruments. Most importantly, we will be learning how to use our musical skills to worship God.
