First Steps in Music: Kindergarten & First Grade in Action

The First Steps in Music curriculum becomes real in this DVD featuring two master teachers with a kindergarten and a first grade class. Shot in real time, the teachers sequence a wide variety of activities, teaching techniques, and strategies from the First Steps in Music curriculum. As with the other DVDs in the series, each class includes an optional commentary track where Dr. Feierabend and the teachers describe in detail the decisions and approaches they take with their students. This resource also demonstrates how a male teacher can model singing with young students, and includes at its heart the goal of helping every student become tuneful, beautiful, and artful.
