FIRST STEPS Books & DVDs with Lillie Feierabend

Lillie Feierabend, an outstanding early childhood & elementary music educator, demonstrates with 1st-3rd graders of the Indianapolis Children’s Choir two sections of John’s First Steps Curriculum: Arioso, in which children spontaneously create their own songs, and Movement Exploration, in which they learn to use their bodies to demonstrate expressiveness in music.

Each DVD includes a voiceover track with Lillie and John discussing learning opportunities, storyline with ideas, and parent engagement as they interact with their children.
