Class Experience

US Grade Pre-Kindergarten - 1
Beginner Level
This course is an introduction to the teacher, teaching style and a sample lesson. This class will be an interactive exploration of the piano keyboard. Learners will recognize the pattern of keys on the piano.  Learners will play simple "pre-staff" patterns on the black keys. Learners will be shown visuals on the computer as well as visuals of the teachers piano to facilitate understanding. Learners will be given the opportunity to play for the class throughout the lesson. If learners are interested in continuing, a weekly piano course will be offered that works through a purchased piano book.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Hello! My name is Mrs. McArthur and I teach MUSIC! I am a Texas certified all-level music teacher with 29 years of teaching experience, 26 years in public schools and 3 years online and homeschool experience. I have taught preschool through eighth grade General Music and Choir classes. I received a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education with an emphasis in vocal music from Oklahoma Baptist University.

I believe that every learner can make music! Learners need a variety of experiences to learn music skills, including visual, aural and kinesthetic. Given sequential steps, students can achieve well beyond the expectations. When creativity is modeled, learners discover that making mistakes improves music. Learners need opportunities to be creative with choices so they can create on their own terms and interests. By making connections to science, social studies, math and beyond, students learn that subjects don’t exist in isolation. Music is the universal language and learners deserve a chance to explore the world through a musical lens!
