Young Child/Semester 1/Week 2/Lesson 2
Dear Young Child 1 Parent:
“Music is everywhere!” We really enjoyed hearing about all the music each child heard during the week. We will continue to work on sound awareness in class through activities such as “Move and Freeze” (listening for music to stop and start), “My Voice” (hearing and experiencing the different ways to use the voice), and instrument exploration (e.g. the cymbal).
Sounds surround us in our daily lives. It is only through intentional listening—focusing on specific sounds—that we can become “tuned in” to the complexities of music. Then we are ready to begin to make music ourselves! The activities your child will experience over the next few weeks will culminate in the ability to intellectually understand and make music.
Continue to foster your child’s awareness of sound this week. Read Music at Home 2 for ideas on how to become a sound investigator!
