Creative, high-interest activities for standard-based music education for Kindergarten by Joy Nelson.
An integrated and imaginative kindergarten program with emphasis on music, movement & cross-curricular connections.
Chapters begin with related concepts reinforced in a variety of learning styles and approaches, correlating to the the National Standards.
For example, the chapter 3 concept is Tempo: faster and slower. Children listen and move to a train story, do an elbow walk, draw a shape, learn a poem to speak in different tempos, perform fast or slow in response to pictures, and make cross-curricular connections.
A well-sequenced program with reproducible activities and a CD of all rhymes, songs and orchestral pieces used in the activities.
Use Book 1 (6536) in the fall and Book 2 (6537) in the spring.
