Music Becomes Fun to Learn for Toddlers in Schools of Adelaide


When we speak about music, what comes to our mind is something to do with different moods of life. A perception grew in the neighborhood that adults and learned people were the ones who always use to be associated with music. In the earlier times music was on of the main source for entertainment for kings and other noble men. Though over the years trend in music changed with every era, but the main motive of music remained the same. Today listening or learning music is not limited to only grownups, even children can try their hand on it. According to many parents, music is an activity which not only gives relaxation but also adds to the personality of the toddlers. There are many institutes and schools which have taken the initiative of teaching music to children and is becoming a growing trend. 


 

Few professional schools have a strict curriculum that they develop and follow in order to teach music to toddlers in Adelaide. The programs are divided into three stages which are meant for children between 2-5 years, 5-7 years and 7-9 years, also distinguished as music matters, music express and music fundamentals. Each of these programs are specifically designed to get the best results from the students. The classes are interactive, multi-sensory and engaging with a layered curriculum to help focus on each child’s individual learning ability. Some of the objectives for the 2-5 years programs are that students are able to confidently sight read all music notes and complex single tone rhythms, children can play simple three note melodies on the recorder and can understand musical terms and meanings. The 5-7 years program allows children to play simple three note melodies on all instruments, extend their recorder work to cover songs played within one octave of a major scale and extend vocal work to duets, solos and cannons and the 7-9 years program allows understanding the make up of major scales and major cords and extend on the musical terms covering all terms required for most music theory exams.
