Leman Academy of Excellence, Marana
Class Information:
Students per Class: 630
Class Description:
Responsible for weekly lessons for 23 classes of K-4th grade scholars (roughly 600+ scholars). Lessons include skill development (rhythm & pitch), notation reading, composition, movement, choral performance, music appreciation, and a uniquely applied integration of music history to complement the classical approach embraced by the Leman Academy of Excellence organization.
Position:
K-4 Music Teacher
Needs:
a classroom set (30) of ipads or chromebooks to assist with composition projects and in-class research
My Philosophy:
A music program is about so much more than developing musicianship or an appreciation for music. It's about experiencing community, each scholar finding a voice, making connections to the world around them through music, creating something beautiful, sharing a message with an audience, bridging past, present and future through music's historical landscape and waking up a different part of the brain that might otherwise not be awakened. Teaching music in a classical context such as LAE embraces, creates an environment that is conducive to these outcomes.

Favorite Quotes:

Why Do I Teach?:
I teach because I love children, and desire to share my passion for music with them. I want my scholars to have the opportunity to experience relationship, community, and the joy of creating music in my classroom. For some, a music class may be the only place they find their voice, or feel "smart", or discover their gift. I want each child to have the opportunity to explore those things.
