Susan Hammond is acclaimed for her award-winning best-selling CDs and DVDs introducing children to classical music. Classical Kids ® presents each composer in a rich historical content illuminated by freshly recorded music.
While all the biographical and social facts about the period are true, a fictional child leads the young listener into the composer’s world in an emotionally engaging, non-didacticway. Because these recordings are not reductionist in their language level or music quality, they appeal to a wide range of students and their teachers from grades K-8.
This Teaching Edition combines musical studies with many other subject areas and skills. It is designed to move children from being passive listeners to active participants in the creative arts, literacy, critical thinking and communication skills. The Teacher’s Notes support the Integrated Curriculum, Whole Language Learning, Enquiry-based Learning and Visual Thinking Strategies. You will find practical suggestions for every level of general student and musician to develop general creativity, multi-level thinking, memory skills, cooperation and time management. Recent studies prove a consistent and powerful correlation between a substantive arts education and student achievement in all other subject areas and in standardized tests.
