South Korea Grade 3 Curriculum - Arts (Music / Art)

The South Korean elementary school curriculum includes Arts education, encompassing both Music and Art. While detailed specifics for Grade 3 are not readily available, the Arts are a key component of the broader elementary curriculum, which also includes Korean Language, Social Studies/Ethics, Mathematics, Science/Practical Course, Physical Education, and English.

Music: Music education in Korea aims to foster musical literacy and appreciation. Korean children's songs are often incorporated into the elementary music curriculum.

Art: The South Korean elementary art curriculum emphasizes a native and national approach, focusing on teaching students about Korea's original art forms. This may include painting, calligraphy, pottery, sculpture, and other traditional Korean arts.

The South Korean national curriculum undergoes revisions periodically. The 2009 curriculum was implemented in elementary schools in phases, starting with Grades 1 and 2 in 2013, followed by Grades 3 and 4 in 2014, and Grades 5 and 6 in 2015. The National Curriculum Information Center (NCIC) provides information on the current curriculum.
