Music for all Kids: Using Interactive Songs to Increase Learning and Participation
by KLIK Enterprises
Another super practical text - written by three Australian teachers who actually understand what it is like to be working in a special ed classroom!
Music for All Kids focuses on 20 very familiar early childhood and junior primary songs, including Old McDonald had a Farm, Sing a Rainbow and This Old Man.
The book provides specific instructions for and diagrams of 20 finished song boards, as well as blackline masters for all of the song symbols and song board pictures.
While the authors were not able to reproduce the music or words of the songs (copyright!) the book provides references for tapes of the songs.
The book also includes:
- Links to outcomes based curriculum
- Goals for Individual Education Plans (IEPs)
- A recording sheet to monitor student achievement and for use in student portfolios.
The second edition of this popular title is a valuable resource for teachers:
- In mainstream daycare centres, kindergartens and pre-primaries, who want to increase their students’ turn-taking skills and levels of participation;
- With early childhood students for whom English is a second language (ESL), who are learning the names of common objects and actions;
- In integrated or inclusive mainstream settings, with one or more junior primary students with special needs;
- In special education kindergarten, pre-primary and junior primary classes, with students who are nonverbal or have limited oral language skills;
- And for parents of young students with autism or intellectual disabilities, who wish to develop simple materials to use with their children at home.
