Throughout the year at St. Nicholas School, students in the intermediate grades have been exploring the elements of music and researching a topic that is of a uniquely Canadian cultural perspective in order to create lyrics and develop a melody using GarageBand or choose an instrumental piece to which they can add their lyrics.
The primary/junior grades have been focusing on First Nation music, drama and dance as well as music and dance from a variety of countries. All examination and learning of the specific performing arts within a particular country’s culture are researched by the students so they develop a better understanding of and appreciations for the diversity of arts in Canada and around the world.
