SUMMARY:Early Childhood Music Class
DESCRIPTION:
 Early Childhood Music Education classes are based 
 on the research of Edwin Gordon and follow 
 the curriculum developed by Dr. Cynthia Crump 
 Taggart, Professor and Chair of Music Education 
 at MSU and Director of the Early Childhood 
 Music Program at CMS. Class activities include 
 singing and chanting, moving to music, 
 playing assorted percussion instruments, and 
 pattern instruction. The goal of the curriculum 
 is to increase children's music aptitude (potential 
 to achieve in music) through engaging 
 and entertaining musical activities, which 
 will lay a foundation for lifelong music.\n
 \n
 Early 
 childhood music students start as early 
 as birth. The youngest babies respond to class 
 activities with rapt attention as they soak 
 up the musical sounds. Older children begin 
 to explore with their voices and their bodies. 
 As they get older, many students develop 
 their musical skills so that they can echo tonal 
 and rhythmic patterns accurately, sing in 
 tune, and move exactly with the musical beat.\n
 \n
 Children 
 attend early childhood music class 
 with a parent or caregiver. Infant/toddler 
 classes are offered for children 0-3 years, 
 and preschool classes are offered for children 
 3-5 years. \n\n
 Price: $168 per semester (10 weeks)\n
