Clarence Central School District

The Clarence Music Department has a comprehensive, NYS standards based K-12 music curriculum. At the elementary level, all students meet one time every week as a homeroom class for 45 minute classes. 

The elementary vocal/general music curriculum is divided into three sequential categories:

1) Readiness - Grades K - 1 

Students have beginning readiness experiences in singing, movement, and playing rhythm instruments to prepare for musical understanding.

2) Early Literacy - Grades 2 - 3

Students have further experiences in singing and movement, and primary experiences in music reading and music terminology. Students work toward singing on pitch and keeping a steady beat.

3) Music Literacy - Grades 4 - 5
