We are very excited about the music program at our school.  The success we enjoy is a direct reflection of the students who participate in our music education curriculum.  It is a delight to work at a school where students and parents work for excellence!  Listed below are the classes I teach and some of the unique programs offered at Catlin.  If you have any questions, email me at deborah.mosier@ops.org.

Courses I Teach

• General Music: All students Grades K- 6
  Students participate in 4 - 30 minute classes in a 10-day cycle.  General Music classes use the textbook Spotlight on Music 2005.
• Fourth Grade Recorder: 30 minutes each week (all year). Students participate in the Omaha Symphony LinkUp! communities project.
• Fifth and Sixth Grade Hand Chimes: elective, 4 choirs.  30 minute rehearsals are scheduled twice weekly.
• Catlin Chorus Grades 5 & 6:  both non-select and auditioned choirs.  Additional rehearsals are scheduled for performance preparation.
  
  Student achievement in the arts is featured monthly during the Performance Showcase Assemblies.  Student awareness of the opportunities and skills required for participation in the arts (and careers) is enriched through multiple contacts with guest artists and field trips to arts organizations and events
