MILK & COOKIES
WEEK 10
Dear Our Time Parent:
“Ding dong! Knock, knock!” “Listening” in Kindermusik class comes in many forms. We listen to each other, we listen to music as we rock and dance, and we listen and talk about specific identified sounds.
“Active Listening” differs from hearing in that it is an intentional act. While we are surrounded by sounds in our everyday life, we choose whether or not to listen and process the sounds we hear. “Active Listening” is an important part of the Kindermusik curricula because it offers children the opportunity to learn to listen with intention.
This week is a good time to reintroduce the stir xylophone to your child. Try the ideas of ways to play listed on page 20 of your Home Activity Book. Then try some of the listening ideas on page 21. Now that you and your child have experienced several weeks of Kindermusik listening, do you notice a difference in your child’s interest in listening?
