Year 6 Music
Year 6 Music enhances musical abilities through musicianship, exploring rhythm, pitch, dynamics, expression, form, structure, timbre, and texture. Students engage in percussion ensemble performances and the "Aladdin Kids Musical," culminating in a final performance. They explore African rhythms, broadening cultural and historical understanding through world music exploration.
