Hello! My name is Anna Hoyt and I am very excited to be the 5th - 8th Grade Music Teacher at St. Joan of Arc this year!
I earned my Bachelor of Music Education and Mathematics Education from Central
Michigan University, and have taught Middle School Band and Choir, High School
Drumline and Percussion Ensemble as well as Kindergarten through Eighth Grade
General Music. My very first instrument was the Flute, and I enjoy playing all of the
different band instruments as well!
This year I am looking forward to using listening, dancing, and instrument playing to
learn about the different aspects of music. The skills we learn in this class through music
games, songs, projects, and composition, will not only help us broaden our musical
knowledge, but will teach us skills and strategies for working with others. Music can
refine our fine motor skills and coordination, teach us patience, hard-work, and get us
thinking and working outside the box.
Thank you so much for the opportunity this year to work with your child and help them
grow! Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or if you just want to say
hello. This will be such a fun and exciting year!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Hoyt
