This singing-based Kodály curriculum is used in many elite music conservatories of Europe, and throughout the world. With discovery learning as a foundation, the curriculum utilizes hands-on activities, movement, singing games, folk songs, singing stories, and music of the great composers to joyfully build foundational music skills.
Emphasis is placed on positive social interactions through age-appropriate music activities where students will develop skills in music sensitivity, the reading and writing of simple rhythms and melodies, critical listening, solfa (the do, re, mi, etc. method which is the phonics system of music literacy), and will progress toward mastering their ability to sing in-tune both individually and in a group. Students will also develop a love and appreciation for the lives and music of the great composers, and world-wide music cultures.
