I hope you and your children have learned some fun songs you will continue to sing together. Singing is not only enjoyable, it has is beneficial in the following ways:

• boosts the immune system

• lowers stress levels and is a natural antidepressant

• broadens communication skills

• boosts confidence

Solfege is a centuries-old method used around the world and widely taught at all levels of music instructions. It utilizes syllables and hand signs to develop and strengthen the understanding of pitch relationships and teach sight singing. Understanding solfege also aids in transcribing (writing down) music and improves improvisational and composition skills.

Optional home fun activity: Make the duck puppets on page 33 in the workbook
(Remember, these activities are optional but can be a great bonding experience to do with your child during the week.)

For my convenience, I have preloaded content for the whole semester. I will update each future post with specific time-sensitive info before I send the link each week. If you choose to read ahead you might see details that don’t apply to your child’s class. For this reason I do not recommend reading ahead. Thank you!
