Music Literacy for All: Developing Musically Literate Individuals

Free to all Florida Panhandle music teachers in ECSD, SRCSD, OCSD, WCSD, and Baldwin County, AL; $150 for all others. Helping individuals become musically literate is central to the school, community, and church music curriculum. Working from the premise that students learn musical skills in much the same order as they do language skills, participants will explore how we ‘learn’ music through hearing and imitating patterns before reading and writing. The pedagogy also includes sequential techniques for teaching improvisation and dictation, key components of music literacy. Workshop participants will also be presented with teaching strategies and techniques for integrating and applying literacy skills to appropriate repertoire. Special attention will be given to the development of music literacy curriculum maps and diction maps. J.W. Pepper is proud to provide reading session materials for this event!
