VISION STATEMENT Throughout history, people have felt the need to communicate with those around them. One form of this communication has been through using the arts, particularly music, as a mode of self‐expression. Music is an important key to understanding one’s cultural history, as well as the history of other cultures. Music enables students to gain a greater awareness of their uniqueness, by drawing upon their own varied backgrounds and ethnic origins. Music offers lifelong opportunities for the development of imagination, sensitivity, inventiveness, risk‐taking, and enjoyment. Through the study of music, students will gain an understanding for the aesthetic qualities of the arts, and an appreciation of the peoples of the world. According to the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards, the arts are “an essential part of the academic curriculum for the achievement of human, social, and economic growth”. The study and performance of music enhances self‐esteem, builds self‐discipline, develops organizational skills, and reinforces social skills, such as cooperation, commitment, and working towards a common goal. Additionally, the study of music provides an opportunity for interdisciplinary connections to a wide assortment of core content areas, which includes World Languages, Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, Physical Education, Technology, as well as 21st Century Life and Careers. It is our vision that the General Music Curriculum will offer the students of Berkeley Heights a well‐rounded musical experience. The students will develop fundamental skills in notation and composition, by creating and performing music. The students will experience the mechanics of music‐making through solo and group singing, instrument playing, movement, creating and improvising, and Eurhythmics. By listening to and responding to music, students will develop an appreciation for music history and culture, through the study of composers and stylistic periods. This curriculum seeks to provide the opportunity for students to become lifelong appreciators of music, in all its forms.
