Incorporating music in our curriculum is a vital part of our students' learning. Because we are a STEAM school, music is brought to our students through chorus. My students learn how to read music notes, exercise their vocal chords and participate in community performances. They have performed in front of parents, peers and community leaders. By doing this, choir provides a sense of belonging, offers new opportunities for learning, encourages student engagement, builds confidence and promotes civic engagement. By having students wear traditional choir robes they would be looked upon as professionals. This is why it is so important for a choir to dress the part. Students would feel that they belonged to a group that they could be proud of. Students will also be exposed to experiences that they may not necessarily participate in on their own. Students will be highly engaged because it requires each child to participate while learning how to sing. Chorus can also open up my students world in music. Singing may be a talent that students didn't know they had, but participating in choir could broaden their hidden talents. Wearing choir robes will boost their self esteem while giving them confidence when they perform in school and community events.
