Music Fundamentals, Methods, and Materials for the Elementary Classroom Teacher

Designed for prospective teachers without extensive music backgrounds, this market-leading text provides both a thorough overview of the basic elements of music and a clear sequence of instructional steps that allows readers to participate in the same learning process they will later use as teachers. Hallmark features of the text include: the nine National Standards cued to each teaching strategy, information on the most current thinking in music education, a balanced representation of songs, and Specialized Areas addressed with clarity and comprehensiveness. Packaged with an audio CD for use with the lessons, the text continues to be written in such a way that, once students leave the college classroom, they can easily use the text package as a resource handbook with their own students, without continued music specialist assistance and.Glossary Preface Section I: Teaching the Elements of Music to Children Chapter 1: Music and the Child Chapter 2: Teaching Rhythm to Children Chapter 3: Teaching Melody to Children Chapter 4: Teaching Timbre to Children Chapter 5: Teaching Expressive Elements to Children Chapter 6: Teaching Form to Children Chapter 7: Teaching Texture to Children Chapter 8: Teaching Harmony to Children Section II: Developing Musical Skills Chapter 9: The Singing Voice Chapter 10: Playing Musical Instruments Chapter 11: Listening Activities and Materials Chapter 12: Movement and Children Section III: Organizing Musical Experiences Chapter 13: Lesson Planning Chapter 14: Integrating Music with Other Subjects Audio CD Listing of Recorded Selections 1.
