[HANASHIR:2790] Day School Music Curriculum

[Laura Berkson <braveann...>]

Friends,
I am currently researching what other Jewish day school music teachers are
doing in terms of curriculum.  If any of you on this list are teaching music
in Jewish day schools, I'd really appreciate a response to the questions
below.  

To spare the rest of the list a lot of info they may not be interested in, I
think it would be best if you responded to me privately at braveann (at) 
ids(dot)net(dot)

Also, if anyone on this list has a suggestion for other lists where I might
post this survey, I'd appreciate it very much.

Many thanks!  --- Laura


Jewish Day School Music Curriculum Survey

1)  Do you use a specific curriculum / method?

2)  What grades are you teaching?

3)  How many times a week do students have music, and how long is each
class?

4) How many students (on average) in each class?

5)  Do you have a music room, or do you go class-to-class?

6))  Are you full time or part time?

7)  What kinds of all-school programs are you involved with or responsible
for?

8)  Do you direct or coordinate after-school music activities such as choir,
recorder club, instrument lessons?

9)  Is choir, orchestra or band part of the school curriculum?

10)  Does your curriculum use as its foundation the National Standards for
Music Education?
