About Level 3 classes:
What do do preschoolers learn in a music class?
Music is so much more than instruments! Kindermusik levels work on sound exploration, ensemble development, creative play, and more. Students will enjoy the fun of musical expression while boosting all areas of learning.
What to expect
Creative Expression
Through creative play, 3-5-year-old students learn to safely express their feelings and ideas through movement and music.
Pre-reading Music
Take it one symbol at a time. Preschoolers will begin to learn to interpret graphic notation symbols in comparison to sounds, which is a precursor to reading music.
Ensemble Development
All together now! Level 3 students will play simple patterns as a group, building the tools they will need to create music in an ensemble.
Instrument Play
“Da-dum-da-dum!” Your child will play a variety of instruments, emphasizing on steady beat, repeated rhythm patterns, and graphic notation.
What they’ll learn
Cognition
Students of music show a growing ability to memorize and recall information, and present increased attention and focus.
Listening and Sound Recognition
Children are able to detect patterns, nuances, and timbre in different sounds they hear.
Language Understanding
By Level 3, students are gaining a wider vocabulary and knowledge of story structures, and are learning how to decode and interpret symbols.
Socialization
Students learn to wait patiently, take turns, work cooperatively in a group, and communicate effectively and respectfully.
