Welcome to Mr. Darley’s
Marvelously Magnificent Musical Montage!

Plug your ears, as things could get LOUD!!  I am happy to be back at Salk School for the first semester and Tibbott School for the second half of the 2005-06 year!

My goal is to infuse a love and understanding of musical ideas, and expressions into all Valley View children as we explore together! We will build upon what we learned last year to create more joyful noise in and around our school.  Early elementary students (Grades 1-2) will be investigating different qualities of music such as fast and slow, loud and soft and other dynamics through songs, activities, and performances.  Grades 3-5 will study several topics this year including Music Fundamentals (reading and writing traditional music), Acoustic Guitar, and Recorders.  All classes will also have an opportunity to participate in an evening performance for the public at the end of the semester.  Parents, please feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions you may have about the music curriculum, as I will be happy to talk to you!  Working together as a team, I anticipate this year to be a tremendous success as the children establish and nurture their gifts in the fine arts!
