Music Moments To Teach Academics

Description

by Kerri Lynn Nichols

This text, designed for classroom teachers as well as music specialists, is a source book of activities and practical ideas to help teachers integrate music and movement into the curriculum to enhance learning. The introductory chapters illuminate conceptual teaching, fundamental movement pattern theory, and three approaches to integrating music as an intelligence: supplemental, cognitive and social-emotional. Remaining chapters are organized by subject including math, science, language arts, social studies, visual art and wellness. A 68-page resource section provides teachers with additional support for music experiences.
