First Steps in Music

Curriculum

Completely redesigned and enhanced, this is the premier series for teaching solfege. With the Conversational Solfege approach, music literacy starts with great literature and an "ear-before-eye" philosophy that correlates with the National Standards. Great songs are broken down into their component parts and then reassembled so that students can bring greater musical understanding to everything they do. The teacher's and students' components have been completely redesigned to make using this program even more engaging. Also new to this edition is an extensive assessment section, making it easy to track the progress of every student. Varied song material from America's diverse history assures the teacher an excellent selection of music at all levels. This 12-step teaching method carefully brings students from readiness to creating music through inner hearing to transferring their musical thoughts into notation - in other words, composing music! The new Enhanced Package includes all materials from the Conversational Solfege line of products (except for Level 3 books and CD) plus: Word Wall (second edition); The Book of Canons; The Book of Song Dances; The Book of Song Tales for Upper Grades and The Book of Playground Songs and Rhymes.

Teacher's Edition Level 1

Paul Kimball

Based on the Kodaly method of music learning, this resource provides a sequenced set of melodies beginning with the simplest sol-mi/ta ti-ti exercises, making sight-singing achievable by even the youngest of learners! After sol-mi patterns, the complexity builds to melodic patterns, intervals, and rhythms. After working through the full pentatonic scale, move on to advancing rhythms, moveable do, diatonic melodies, letter names, and the beginning of key signatures. Expression marks complete the exercises and make them more musical! A gateway to extended musical literacy, these exercises work for students of any age and are suitable for classroom use or in choral rehearsals. Make sight-reading magical with this helpful resource!

This provides teachers with a step-by-step road map for developing children's performance, movement, and literacy skills in an organic and thoughtful manner. This creates a system appropriate for the developmental stages of first through fifth grade students, and also integrates vertically between elementary music classes. The methods encourage greater musical ability and creativity in children by teaching them to sing, move, play instruments, and develop music literacy skills. In addition, they promote critical thinking, problem solving, and collaboration skills. Although the books use the Kodaly philosophy, its methodology has also been tested by teachers certified in Orff and Dalcroze, and has proven itself an essential guide for teachers no matter what their personal teaching philosophy.
