Kodaly in the Classroom provides teachers with a step-by-step road map for developing children's performance, creative movement, and literacy skills in an organic and thoughtful manner. Through six years of field- testing with music kindergarten teachers in the United States, United Kingdom, and Hungary (the home country of Zoltan Kodaly), authors Micheal Houlahan and Philip Tacka have developed a methodology specifically for 21st-century classrooms. Houlahan and Tacka use the latest research findings in cognition and perception to create a system not only appropriate for the developmental stages of first through fifth grade students, but also one which integrates vertically between elementary music classes. The methods outlined in these volumes encourage greater musical ability and creativity in children by teaching them to sing, move, play instruments, and develop music literacy skills. In addition, they promote critical thinking, problem solving, and collaboration skills. Although the books use the Kodaly philosophy, its methodology has also been tested by teachers certified in Orff and Dalcroze and has proven itself an essential guide for teachers no matter what their personal philosophy and specific training might be. 10545193 Paperback Kindergarten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65.00 10545194 Paperback 1st Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39.95 10545200 Paperback 2nd Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39.95 10545203 Paperback 3rd Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39.95 10545206 Paperback 4th Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39.95 10545209 Paperback 5th Grade . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39.95 n Kodaly Today (A Cognitive Approach to Elementary Music Education, 2nd edition)Micheal Houlahan & Philip Tacka.

Gr. K-6 25.00 l The Music of Teaching (Learning to Trust Students' Natural Development)Barbara Kreader Skalinder. The Music of Teaching focuses on an ephemeral attribute all teachers need but few consider: perception. This includes the ability to trust both students' natural development and the learning process itself to guide developing pianists down music's path. Using stories from her 46-year teaching career plus research from the fields of education and psychology, Barbara Kreader Skalinder explores the ways teaching has evolved from the authoritative style of the 1950s to the collaborative design better suited to the students in today's digital world. The author also examines the ways independent teachers, free from the outside constraints often imposed on public school educators, can point the way toward educational methods that keep students' individual learning styles and natural rate of progress as a primary focus and guide them toward independent learning and success. 10641649 Hardcover Book . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19.99 HANDY TOOLS for the Music Teacher n Choir Director Plan-It The Ultimate Planning Guide Janet Day. 10070781 Book. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11.99 n Music Teacher Plan It Janet Day. 10018192 Book. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11.99 n Word Wall John Feierabend. 10350232 Flash Cards . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 89.95 Th ank you f or being a Peppe r c u s t o m e r !
