Description

Kindergarten music is about joyful participation: singing, clapping, moving and playing. Through active practice children meet the basic elements of music — beat, rhythm, melody and form — and learn to tell fast from slow, high from low and loud from soft. They recognize common instruments, listen to classic works such as Grieg's Peer Gynt and Saint-Saëns's Carnival of the Animals, and sing a shared repertoire of songs.
