Summary:
|
The District's Educational Services Department has made recommendations for updates in our district-wide course catalog. At this time we are submitting a revised Visual and Performing Arts course titled Piano Keyboard. This course meets the UC/CSU A-G Requirement âFâ.
Piano Keyboard was revised to have an updated curriculum that meets the UC/CSU A-G Requirements. The purpose of this course is to allow students the opportunity to learn to read, write, understand, and describe music through the art of piano performance. Students will be able to discuss course content using content specific vocabulary, as well as be able to perform and describe music from different cultures, genres, and historical periods. By the end of the class, students would have a general overview of all historical music eras and prominent composers. They should also be able to perform beginning to intermediate level piano music and be able to transpose and harmonize simple melodies. Students should be able to notate, count, and perform simple rhythms while demonstrating successful practice techniques.
The above courses have been approved by the Director of Curriculum and Instruction and the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services.
