Description

Class Experience

In this flex course, students will begin to learn to read music using LEGO. Each week students will be given a video explaining each of the concepts and how to practice "reading the notes." Students will then be able to create their own music and music practice. In the classroom we will share different videos of music to listen to while you are creating your music. For example, we will listen to treble clef instruments while creating the treble clef notes. Each week students will share...

Michelle has a Bachelor in Music Education and a Masters in Music. She loves to make music accessible for all students and make it fun! She runs a successful studio in her home where the focus is on young beginners.

Students are required to complete the activities in each module and post a picture of their completed project in the classroom.

Materials Needed:

Print off the optional worksheets listed in each module to extend the learning beyond your Lego pieces.

Parts Needed:

Base plate- 10”x 10”  32 studs

Variety of Lego pieces- specifially 1x 4, 1x6, the long singles, and the 2x2. Purchasing a mixed classic set works quite well for this class.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:YouTube

Students are asked to post any of their compositions in class so that the teacher can provide a recording of what they sound like within the classroom! If you play and instrument and would like to record yourself playing your composition at the end we would love to hear it (not a requirement to be able to play an instrument however!)

No live meetings, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

NOTE: All ages are welcome to register for this course due to the flex nature. It is an introductory course to music reading but anyone in the first few years of music study who may be struggling to read their notes will enjoy this course as a review.
