Welcome Message

Greetings from Naveen Cabral, the Primary music teacher for Grades 4 and 5. I have also been assigned the responsibility of a Performance Co-ordinator in the Primary, under which I do run the Primary Musical and the Festival of Choirs. I am very excited to be entering my 13th year in teaching, 11 of which have been with the best of PYP schools. I play the guitar, recorder, keyboard/piano, xylophones and a few other instruments but my forte lies in singing. In addition to my strong PYP experience, I recently completed my Grade 8 Vocals in Trinity - Rock and Pop. I have also completed various other music certifications through the Trinity College of Music. I have been trained by quite a few professionals in different instruments and musical technique. In addition to the Music Together certification that I have, I have attended quite a few IB workshops (PYP). I do perform as a musician in my spare time, as a vent to my outburst of passion and love for music.

I believe my education and degree in my career has mainly been my teaching experience, which has helped me acquire the best from my students as we worked together to create great music and events. My aim will always be to help the students acquire musical skills and knowledge that will help them improve as an overall personality towards a better future for our world.

Instrument Unit

We have begun with out Instrument Unit. The central idea is music as a language to interpret music notations. In this Unit we will learn to play instruments using music notations. Grade 4 will be working with keyboards while Grade 5 will be working on guitars. Both the grades have completed their prior knowledge assessments wherein in the 1st class of this Unit they had to individually record a minimum 10 second piece on the instrument. As the students were given no training on this, this was used as a method to gauge their skill level on the instrument so that lessons could be planned accordingly as per the needs of the students.
