PROGRAM SPOTLIGHT - MUSIC
Each week, we will be highlighting one of our programs or offering resources for the Radcliffe community to illustrate The Radcliffe Way!

Music at Radcliffe Creek School and Little Creek is always a dynamic part of the student's day. Even the youngest of music students (LC Toddlers) are involved in an "EXPERIENCE-FIRST" methodology that connects the body to concepts, saving the visual piece for down the road. What does this look like? Dalcroze Eurhythmics inspired beat and rhythm activities, folk dancing, world cultural focused song repertoire and games, instrumental exposure & skill acquisition, and performance opportunities. TONS OF MOVEMENT and cooperative music play ensure that students are engaged from the moment they enter class!


   
BOX TOP$

The winners of the most recent Box Tops competition are the Sassafras Homeroom and the Admin team with a tie! Radcliffe raised $144.50 in the most recent submission!

Don't forget, traditional Box Tops are being phased out of production, so download the app to start scanning receipts!


Traditional Box Tops clips are being phased out of production, but may continue to be found on many products throughout the store. You can still clip and send them to school.
