We are so excited to kick off Monarch Elementary's new Music program! Thanks to California's Prop 28, we are unveiling a new music class at Monarch where students will be able to lear to read music, explore a variety of instruments and learn to collaborate, communicate & express music togehter!
Music Class
Monarch Elementary School prides itself on its dedication to providing excellent instruction in music for every student once a week year round from grades K-5th. Teacher Moshe is trained in the Orff Schulwerk method of music education. He incorporates rhythm, singing, games, movement, and improvisation into his classes.
​
Some of the instruments taught in the general music classes include xylophone for 2nd grade, recorder for 3rd-5th grade, ukulele for 4th and 5th grade, and singing and percussion for all grades!​
About Teacher Moshe
Moshe Vilozny was raised in Santa Cruz and studied music at Cabrillo College and UCSC. He worked as a professional musician for many years before getting his teaching credential and moving from music performance to music education.
​
Voice and guitar are his primary instruments, but as an elementary music teacher, Moshe has learned to play a little bit of everything. You can learn more about Moshe and listen to some of his original compositions here:
