Grade 4 of this general music series offers groundbreaking educational power, convenience, and affordability. Incorporatingfolk repertoire from around the world, this series is based on how children learn music rather than on how music has always been taught. It focuses on helping children learn to audiate and become independent, creative musicians. This allows teachers to adapt lessons to meet the needs of each individual child, and includes comprehensive lesson plans for each song and activity. Four components for each grade are available: hardcover student book; a spiral-bound teacher resource guide with lesson plans and scope and sequence information; a complete set of recordings on CD; and a piano accompaniment book.
