Older Children

Older children (grades 4 – 6) bear musical fruit as they connect music and worship. Through Growing in Grace, they become creative, hands-on musicians, capable of:
  • Becoming confident singers while expanding their vocal range and singing in harmony with articulation and expression
  • Growing in the fundamentals of music by learning to recognize, then sing and play melodic and rhythmic notation
  • Combining the elements of melody, rhythm, harmony, text, and movement to create significant musica l experiences
  • Following the melody and text of hymns and anthems
  • Studying the elements and practices of worship within the local church
  • Memorizing scripture through songs, rhythmic speech, and movement
  • Using the hymnal in worship
