Listen
Listening to different musical styles develops ears that are sensitive to subtle nuances of sound.
Sing
Singing in solfege (do-re-mi) helps children develop pitch sense and musical expression.
Play
Playing what has been sung is a natural way for students to perform expressively. Playing with others helps further develop rhythmic sense.
Read
