Ms. Joanie joined our K Prep classroom today for a special Music Enrichment class! She brought her rhythm sticks and the children used them to create spooky halloween sounds! Incorporating music into the Early Childhood classroom has a variety of benefits:
- It provides means to communicate
- An opportunity to express emotions
- Develops social skills
- Provides opportunities to participate in groups
- Enhances selfâconcept and self confidence
- Enhances sensorial skills
- Refines listening skills
- Awareness of movement and body positions
- Enhances creativity and imagination
- Learn new words and concepts
- Explore cause and effect
- Develop large motor skills
- Improves balance and coordination
- Helps develop fine motor skills
and of course……..it’s fun!!!
