Originally Published : 26 Mar 1998

This book is the first of two practical classroom books on the teaching of music in primary schools. The books are exciting and innovative, offering a 'best practice in music' philosophy supported by practical ideas and reflection on key aspects that will appeal to specialist and non-specialist music teachers alike. The books respond to the need to build on the early stages of National Curriculum development. The books help practitioners stand back and see the value in practical activities; investigate music learning with children by listening to them; manage music effectively and less stressfully; and gain insight into how to support the development of individual music learning within a National Curriculum framework. The first book focuses on the very specific needs and approaches appropriate for teaching music to very young children.
