ABSTRACT
This curriculum guide for grades K-5 In music
presents for each grade level the basic curriculum concept,
curriculum performance objectives, suggested curriculum teaching
methods, audiovisual and resource materials, performance objectives
and concepts of both career awareness and character education. It is
hoped that this type of curriculum design for the student will form a
bridge between school and the world of work. A student learns about
the subject of music while at the same time he gains awareness about
possibilities of work in the field of music.

Preface
Meaningful existence is the goal of life in today's world. Living takes on meaning when it produces a sense
of self-satisfaction. The primary task of education must be to provide each individual with skills necessary
to reach his goal.
When children enter school, they bring with them natural inquisitiveness concerning the world around them.
Normal curiosity can be the nucleus which links reality to formal training if it is properly developed. A
sense of continuity must be established which places education in the correct perspective.
Communities
must become classrooms and teachers resource persons. Skills such as listening, problem solving, following
directions, indepeliclent thinking and rational judgement then can merge into daily living procedures.
.
in classrooms especially designed to form a bridge between school and the world of work, experiences must be
developed. On campus performance in job tasks and skills, following a planned sequence of onsite visitation,
will fuse information into reality.
Practical relationships developed with those outside the formal school
setting will provide an invaluable carry-over of learned skills.
Search for a rewarding life vocation is never easy.
Without preparation it becomes a game of chance.
With
a deliberate, sequential, and planned program of development,.decisions can be made based upon informed and
educated judgements.
A full range career education program, K-12, will offer opportunities for participants to enter employment
immediately upon completion of training, post secondary vocationaltechnical education, and/or a four-year
college career preparatory program.
