This course will be interactive and informative, exploring ways in which music compliments and contributes to all areas of learning and development. We aim to create a supportive environment where participants can share, learn and discuss.
Participants will have the opportunity to:
• Explore children’s musical making and development
• Discover musical games and activities
• Explore the TMT self-assessment tool; a tool to support the development of music provision
• Develop an understanding of how music threads through all areas of learning and development
• Observe children’s musical play and discuss how to nurture, and interact with children’s music making
• Explore musical environments and how to create music making opportunities
• Discuss effective planning for musical activities and opportunities linked to all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage
