Abstract Recommendations for a music curriculum based on best practices for grades K-12. This book gives music educators a blueprint for a music curriculum based on the best practices of the past but modified to meet the needs of the future. In addition to the K-12 National Standards, The School Music Program contains prekindergarten standards developed by MENC and an explanation of the impact the Standards will have on music educators. The book includes details on ways that standards-driven curricula will better serve American students: skills and knowledge as objectives; diverse genres and styles of music; creative skills; problem-solving and higher-order thinking skills; interdisciplinary relationships; technology; assessment.
