Welcome

Hello Everyone!  Welcome to my Blog.  My name is Mr. Frazier and I am the General Music Teacher for grades 1-5 and Choral Director at Hindley Elementary School. 

This blog is currently under development , but I am trying to keep it updated.

 This year we have all sorts of “new stuff” in the Music Department.  We are beginning to ask students to compose beginnign in grade 1 to prepare them for the district-wide 5th grade composition assessment. 

This year, our curricular focus is the music of George Gershwin.  Students will be completing listening analyses of various works from Mr. Gershwin.

 Another new feature this year is our “bus room sing-along” at dismissal time.  Students at Hindley have responded very positively to the idea of singing as they wait for their buses to arrive at dimissal time.

Please check out the National Standards for Music Education listed under What Students Should Know and Be Able To Do.  Also, please Take a moment to view some information about the Three Artistic Processes
