EN Music Team

Sharing is caring! 5th grade welcomed their 2nd grade buddies to watch them perform some original music this morning #BetterTogether #MusicMatters #ENgage

I will never tire of students who create their own music and work together to perform it in multiple parts. #MusicMatters #ENgage #BetterTogether

@Superdave_312 Love these kids so much! Also love the diversity in clothing choices... is it so sweltering we need shirts off, or do you need long pants and a sweatshirt? No one knows.

Want to have more space for folk dancing, and smaller groups playing recorders? Let me solve all your problems by presenting: The Sweets of May dance, with half the class dancing and half on instruments. You’re welcome. 😍🎶 #ENgage #BetterTogether #MusicMatters

Folk dance variations in 4th grade led to some exciting and creative collaboration today! #D73bringsthejoy #BetterTogether #EveryOneEveryDay

What an amazing performance by our fifth grade band and chorus students! We are proud of them for their hard work and dedication to music! 🎼🎶 #BetterTogether @District_73

Step 1: Compose a piece for drums using syncopation Step 2: Find a creative way to play your piece on the hand drum Student choice leads to student success! #D73Inspires #ENgage #MusicMatters

There’s no excited quite like “first concert” excited. #D73Inspires #BetterTogether #MusicMatters

We are so proud of our fourth grade musicians for their growth throughout the school year. They put on a beautiful band concert this evening! @District_73 @ENMusicRocks #BetterTogether #MusicMatters

I outsourced my recorder sorting/organizing to helpful fifth graders who opted to come to my room during recess. They finished early and choose making music (and organized themselves to play together!) over chatting with friends 😍 #MusicMatters #ENgage

Music was everywhere at our school today as our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders shared music (and joy!) in the classrooms, the office, and even in the cafeteria. Happy holidays, everyone! #D73bringsthejoy #rENew #BetterTogether #musicmatters

It was a very musical day here at EN! We live-streamed to watch our peers play at TL, played some holiday songs for another class, and then even treated the Office staff! 🎶 #rENew #BetterTogether #EveryOneEveryDay

First grade is learning about all sorts of winter celebrations & loved working together on a new dance for Hanukkah today! #rENew #BetterTogether #musicmatters

Celebrating the holiday with student-created movement for 3rd grade’s current favorite song, Ghost of John! #BetterTogether #ENgage #MusicMatters.

Working with a partner AND switching partners is a music/SEL combo skill, plus loads of fun for 2nd grade. #ENgage #MusicMatters

Stations in music class translates to student independence + engagement, plus the opportunity for peer interaction and problem solving as a team. That’s a big win for a Friday! #ENgage #MusicMatters

Fifth graders are becoming scale masters, singing and then playing this fun piece to demonstrate their proficiency (and musicality!) #ENgage #MusicMatters

Can I express my love & deep appreciation for the Sweets of May dance? It is juuuust challenging enough to learn in one day in 3rd grade, teaches form, allows for student choice in the middle, and is all-around lots of fun. #SweetsofMay #D73Inspires #ENgage

Concert is over but the kids are still excited to perform - so we welcomed our 1st grade friends to a an in-school show! #D73inspires #MusicMatters #ENgage

Playing amazing music on our way to Spring Break makes everyone feel great 😄 #ENgage #BetterTogether #MusicMatters
