Singing is the foundation of all my music classes. We are born with a voice, and it is this unique voice that is our first instrument in life. In my classes we create verses and actions to our songs, we play circle games and line games, hiding games and guessing games, singing games that encourage not only the learning of beat, rhythm and melody, but also develop self-confidence, appreciation, respect, joyfulness, patience and friendship.
Join Maestra Lydia in singing and playing traditional music from South America. Students will learn to play a variety of flutes and percussion from the Andes, the plains and the coasts of Latin America.
This class is designed especially for young children to explore their voice and sing about the world around them – animals, nature, friends, and family. Children will play and sing with puppets and hand percussion, finding their own voice and creativity within the traditional songs and games from Latin America. Class taught in Spanish and English.
