Elementary Music
Taught by: Mr. Eric Vinciguerra
What we do in music...
Elementary classroom music is the foundation for musical growth and appreciation.
In music class, the students participate in a variety of objective based activities ranging from performing on instruments, to analyzing music through listening, to creating dances. The curriculum is based on the national standards for music provided by the National Association of Music Educators (MENC). With these, the students are taught the basic concepts/elements of music.
The class prepares for two performances a year. The Christmas program (for music and band students in grades 1-12) will be held Wednesday, December 10th at 6:30 p.m. in the Alumni gym. The second program will be scheduled in the spring.
About Mr. Vinciguerra
This is my first year at Sacred Heart Academy. I graduated Cum Laude from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor of Music Education degree with a minor in Secondary Mathematics Education. While at CMU I studied bassoon under Dr. Minnis and was a member of the CMU Marching Chippewas. My wife and I are parishioners of Sacred Heart and members of its choir.
I teach the elementary music classes and I'm also the director for 5th Grade Beginning Band, 6th Grade Band, 7th - 12th Grade Concert Band and Choir.
