Welcome to AES Music!  What's it all about?

In 2021-2022 we will use a virtual music education curriculum that provides a more contemporary approach. This technology program is entitled Quaver Ed. The principal mission of Quaver Ed is to help music classrooms in creating a culture of caring using music education and technology. Quaver lessons are scaffolded to meet students as they grow from PreK to 5th grade, both in content matter and in the ways we engage their physical and cognitive development. Quaver lessons will also be accompanied by other various music curriculum strategies such as Orff, Feierabend, . . . 
 
Quaver Ed Link:

I love all music! Seriously! Whether it's rock, rap, country, or even Italian opera, I believe all types of music have value. No matter what this year looks like, we are TORNADOES and we are gonna have a blast. Come with an open mind and be ready to sing, play, dance, and maybe even discover something new.  I can't wait to share music with you this year!
