Dogs And Birds Nursery Rhymes – Animal LUSHER ELZA / CHRIS

Pédagogie

Description :

This is a repertoire book containing 23 simple piano arrangements of well-known and well-loved nursery rhymes and famous melodies. The music uses the Dogs and Birds approach, which allows very young children to learn the piano, even before they know the alphabet. The music is suitable for children between the ages of 3 and 7. The method uses animal symbols to represent the musical notes, for example Cat is C and Dog is D. The animal names are monosyllabic and children are encouraged to sing the names as they play the tunes on the piano or keyboard. This helps children develop musicality and their inner ear. In this animal notes edition of the book, animal symbols are printed in the notes, which aid the children in remembering the musical notation. This book is recommended for ages 3 to 6. A blank notes edition of the book is also available, for ages 6 to 7, which is the same as this book, but without the animal symbols. Parental help is recommended for the very young, however the parents do not need to have a musical background, since the book explains all musical notation necessary to play these pieces. The book contains full colour illustrations throughout, which are an important stimulus for the child. Discussing the illustrations is an essential part of the learning process and this book includes various suggestions of questions to ask the child to stimulate discussion. Working through this book can provide a good parent child bonding opportunity.
