2nd Grade

Dear Parents,

Mrs. Myers and Mrs. Waltz would like to welcome you to the PCK Online Music Class! We're excited to include you in their learning! All of the links below are from the Core Knowledge Curriculum and feature pieces by famous composers and traditional/folk songs to learn. Many of the pieces by famous composers we have already taught this year. Your students may really enjoy going back and reviewing them. Toward the bottom of the list we have posted the Traditional Songs of the Core Knowledge Curriculum that we have yet to teach this year. Further down the list we have some Musical Boredom Busters (online music games) if your kiddo feels so inclined!
