Welcome to The Music Class! I’d like to share with you some basic concepts

about your child’s musical development.

The time to start thinking about your child’s musical education is at birth. In fact, the most critical time in a child’s musical development is from birth to age five. Scientific research has shown that parts of the brain that are not stimulated in the earliest years of life will atrophy. Nobel prize winning research by doctors David Hubel and Tortsen Wiesel of the Harvard Medical School proved this point. They found that if an animal was raised from birth to three months of age with one eyelid sutured closed, the animal would be permanently blind in that eye. The portion of the brain that controls vision in that eye did not develop. From what we know about the brain, this “use it or lose it” concept applies to music as well. Those children who have a deficient musical environment where their potential musical abilities are not stimulated will end up with a significantly lower music aptitude than might have been possible.

Researchers from the University of Munster in Germany recently found that the part of the brain associated with pitch recognition was larger and organized differently among musicians as compared to non-musicians. Most significantly, the musicians who started training earliest had the largest development in that area.

Another scientific study recently found a strong correlation between early musical study and the development of absolute pitch (also called perfect pitch - the ability to identify exact pitches without reference to an instrument). Six hundred musicians were surveyed. Forty percent of the musicians in this study who had begun training at four years of age reported absolute pitch, whereas only three percent of those who had started training at nine years of age did so.

The Music Class songs are designed to expose your child not only to a large quan-tity of music, but also to a broad variety of music. You’ve heard that children who grow up in households where a large spoken vocabulary is used learn to speak with a large vocabulary. The same is true of music. Our songs include a wide vari-ety of scales, rhythms, instruments and styles to further stimulate your child’s mu-sical development. On the upper left hand corner of each song you’ll see a column titled “+ Musical Vocabulary”. These is where we list the musical sounds, common and uncommon, that we hope your child will absorb from the song. With enough time and repetition you’ll see your child’s musical vocabulary blossom.

Under the title of each song you’ll see "l Suggested Activities”. These are designed to help you do the activities with your child at home.

By enrolling your child in The Music Class, you are providing a rich musical environment for your child forty five minutes a week. Of course, that limited time is not enough. Young children learn throughout the week, mostly by imitating you. Our goal is that you will take the songs and activities you have learned in class home with you and model them for your child throughout the week.

Keep in mind that the most important things you can model for your child are the enjoyment of and enthusiasm for music. Children who see their parents having fun with music will naturally copy their behavior; that’s how the learning takes place. Children learn through play and repetition.

I’d like to answer two frequently asked questions.

Q. What’s the point of coming to class if my child is too shy to sing in class?

A. I’d like to encourage you to consider these wonderful first years of life as a time for musical development and musical fun. Please do not get confused between learning music and musical performance. A child’s temperament may dictate whether he or she will want to sing out loud in class. Parental pressure to perform in class might only make the child uncomfortable, and may take away from the relaxed environment in which young children learn best. Children learn through exposure in a fun environment and need the freedom to experiment on their own. Instead of assessing your child’s learning by how he or she “performs” in class, rest assured that if your child enjoys coming to class and enjoys doing the songs and activities with you at home that he or she is learning in as natural a way as possible. Remember, if your child sings at home and not in class - that’s OK!

Q. When should my child start taking instrument lessons?

A. Before instrumental instruction can begin, a child must achieve “independent music accuracy.” Independent music accuracy, which can be attained by all typically developing children, is defined as the ability to sing in tune and in rhythm, and to make rhythmically accurate movements. With proper musical stimulation, this usually occurs between the ages of four and six. Regardless of whether your child chooses to play an instrument at some point, the tonal and rhythm skills they are learning now will give them a lifelong understanding and enjoyment of music.

What To Expect of Your Child in Class

All young children need time to get used to a new room, teacher, songs and situation. It typically takes about four weeks to become familiar with the class environment. There is a wide range of responses children will display during the first few weeks. You will see that as the weeks continue the children will

Page 6: The Lion Collection Book27

become more and more focused in class. It’s important to listen to the CD at home frequently, particularly during the first weeks. Children like what is familiar to them and need a lot of repetition. If they know the songs, they will have more fun in class and learn more.

What to expect according to age

Infant: A baby’s brain is still forming - more so than at any other time in its life. As babies are learning the sounds of language, they are adding the rhythms and tones of music. Just as children learn to speak by hearing their parents speak - learning many of the sounds necessary for communication before they ever utter their first word - children go through the same process of listening, decoding and then experimenting on their own with musical skills. Even if your child is too young to actively participate in class, rest assured that he or she is learning. Early exposure to music will pay off significantly later in life. It’s never too early to start playing music and singing to your baby!

Toddler: Toddlers learn through play, so class needs to be fun. They are watching and experimenting on their own, discovering what they like. They will enjoy playing instruments, singing and dancing. Though their efforts are not very accurate, they will begin to show improved musical skills as they grow older.

Two and Three-year olds: These children have become more accurate in reproducing music, both tonally and rhythmically. They begin to interact less with their parents and more with their teacher and the other children. They are still busy observing and imitating. At this age they become more creative and develop their own ways of singing songs and doing activities. This should be supported and encouraged!

Four-year-olds: Some at four will have already achieved independent music accuracy, but still benefit from being in a creative and musically stimulating environment. While some children at this age may feel too old to be in class with babies, most do not care as long as they are having fun. Parents should refrain from pointing out age differences to their child, but should talk with their child to see if they are enjoying class. If so, parents should relax and enjoy it, too.

All ages: Some children want to march and run; others want to spend the class no more than a foot away from the teacher; some will sit in their parent’s laps; while others want to observe from a cozy corner in the room. At The Music Class we recognize that there are many different learning styles, and we encourage parents to let the children be where they are comfortable. A typical class may have all of these different types of children, but all children have one thing in common: they are all watching, listening, and learning from us. So have fun and make music!

There are many different types of children. Here’s what parents say about their experiences with The Music Class:

The shy child: “When we first started bringing Avery she would sit in my lap the whole class and get up only to grab the instruments. But when we got home, she’d sing the songs, so I knew she was absorbing the music. Now, a few sessions later, she is totally comfortable in class. She participates in everything in class and really likes to sit in her teacher’s lap! What a difference. I’m glad we stuck with it because I can see how much she has been getting out of class.” – E.P.

The active child: “Pierce would never sit in my lap. In fact, he spent most of class running around the room. He was so wild; I was worried he was being disrup-tive. But our teacher told me not to worry and he was right. We’ve been tak-ing music class here for several sessions and he’s gotten a ton out of it. He now makes up his own words to the songs and dances when he hears the music. Even when I didn’t think he was paying attention, when we got out to the car after class, he started singing the songs.” – L.O.

The younger child: “When Brian first came to class, he was only three months old. He was quiet, but his eyes were wide open and he was interested in what was going on. Now, more than a year later, he does everything in class, includ-ing using the sticks to the rhythm. I definitely think that my child is getting a lot more from music class now because we started him when he was young. Even his daycare teachers tell us that when they play music in class he is much more involved and responsive than the other children his age.” – M.M.

The older child: “Nathaniel is 5 years-old now and we still love music class. I do remind him to watch out for the little children, but he has become a leader in his class. He helps his teacher and is sort of a role model for the other children. This music has become such a part of our lives. On rainy days we get out all our music books and sit on the floor and sing the songs. Nathaniel even listens to the music at bedtime. I wish we could take the class forever!” – J.R.

The child with special needs: “Mary Beth has loved The Music Class from the beginning. Even though she has Down’s Syndrome, she’s always been treated like the other children. Music class helped her feel more normal as she saw she could do what the others were doing. The interaction with children is so good for her and the environment is so relaxed.” – D.H.

Classroom Guidelines

Do sing, dance, and have a good time in class. Enthusiasm is infectious!

Do call if you are going to miss a class. This will allow others to use your spot as a make-up time.

Do call if you would like to make up a class. In order to avoid overcrowding reservations for make-ups are required.

Do invite grandparents and other grown-ups to come to class. No reservations required.

Do call about bringing young siblings, relatives, out of town guests, etc., to class. We can accommodate extra children in class only if room permits. Friends considering enrolling next term may observe one class free of charge - reservation required.

Do not come to class if your child appears ill, or has had a fever within the last 24 hours.

Do not get into a turf battle with your child. If your child wants to be in another part of the room and you insist that he/she stays with you, both you and your child will soon have your attention focused on territory as well as how to outsmart each other. This is not a particularly musical activity. Children learn in many different ways and not all children are comfortable staying in their parent’s lap. Remember that even if your child is on the side of the room, he or she is still absorbing what’s going on in class. Of course do make sure your child stays safe and inside the room.

Do not talk in class. Try not to tell your child what to do in class, but instead show your child what to do. Keep in mind that when adults talk it becomes distracting to the teacher and to other adults and children in the class.

Do not eat in class. No one wants to put their baby on a floor with old crumbs. Eating in class is a health hazard and is also distracting to the other children. If your child must snack during class time please do so outside the room.

Do help us keep everyone healthy. If your child puts an instrument in his or her mouth please clean the instrument off with alcohol when you are done. If your child uses a pacifier you might try letting them have their pacifier during instrument play as a way to avoid putting instruments in their mouths.

Do choose your battles carefully. If your child really doesn’t want to put away an instrument consider letting him or her hold onto the instrument for a while. However, if they want to do an unsafe activity, like run with their sticks, please step in to keep them safe.
