Join us on a journey through the history of music, from the first vibrations of "Let there be" to the rhythm, lyrics, and musical genres we have today. Explore composers and performers, unique instruments and styles, and see how music impacted our story over time.
In the student books, you'll learn about rhymes, rhythm, and the structure of songs, poetry, and hymns. The grand finale is writing and composing your own song or hymn. Daily Music Appreciation pages will help you understand the musical elements of selected pieces, which are linked in the app. And we haven't forgotten about science lovers, either. You'll explore sound vibrations, acoustics, and even build your own pan flute and stringed instrument with simple supplies.
