Anne Marie has been in the nursery this week helping us to enjoy a variety of musical experiences taken from the ABC Musicality music programme. This is a multi-platform musical resource for children aged 3-6 years old that is designed to be in tune with a child-centred approach to Early Years education, engaging all areas of child development including literacy and numeracy. Anne Marie works with groups of children playing musical games such as ‘Musical Statues’, which encourage the children to listen to the music and respond appropriately.
They spend time listening to a selection of musical instruments and are given the opportunity to try them out.
They have loved responding to movement instructions from the musical activities on the whiteboard and are always very engaged in the learning. Find out more about the music programme here: http://www.abccreativemusic.com/local-authoritymusic-hubmusic-service/
