Composing With Kindergarten

About the Book

If you have ever wanted to write a song with your Kindergarten or Special Education class but did not want to get into the technical details of Music, then Composing With Kindergarten is the book for you! Here is a “fun and games” approach for instilling creativity and joy into your classroom, using color, rhythm, and sound to release the imagination of your students. Along with having a good time, children are also reinforcing English Language Arts, Math, and Science in auditory, visual, and kinesthetic ways. Any teacher – or parent - can use Composing With Kindergarten, not just the Music specialist. You will find that you are having fun along with your students!
