| Music for Moppets |

This 45–minute class is the Academy's first option for children to begin piano instruction. Children work in groups to develop rhythm, finger coordination and reading skills, gradually mastering musical terms, symbols and concepts necessary for early notation reading. The many improvisational experiences encourage creative thinking and build self–confidence. Participation over the course of the year allows students to work through the entire Moppets piano book. This course is a great building block for further instrument study either in piano or any other instrument down the road. Piano sharing times at home are encouraged; however, no formal practice is required. Ages 4 to 6 Class size is limited to 4 Tuition: $56 Summer Session 1: July 7-26 Summer Session 2: July 28-August 16 Students may register for either session, or both!
Schedule: Wednesday: 4:30 pm Instructor: Sophia Ahmad Temple for Performing Arts, Des Moines
