WELCOME! To the Lewis and Clark Music page. At L&C we believe that music is a vital part of a young child’s complete education. To facilitate that education children at L&C have a multi-faceted experience during their music lesson. Our program is based on the philosophy of Orff Schulwerk (see tab), a music pedagogy begun by Carl Orff and Gunild Keetman in the early 1900’s.In the 2020-2021 School year, many things are different. Specialists will be pushing into grade level classes on a 3-week rotation. Music classes will be held in the home classroom for 25 minutes a day. Below is the rotation schedule.Lewis & Clark Specialist Schedule 2020-2021
