Musicaliti Nursery: Sharks, Fish, Shells

Sharks, Fish, Shells is a fishy theme that uses well-known and original children’s songs to teach musical concepts with a fishy technique! Dance sideways like a Sad Crab to crotchets, gallop like a Seahorse to dotted rhythms and take slow strides as a Whale to semibreves, using physical movement to experience music notation!Musicaliti uses the concepts of the renowned educational approaches of Dalcroze, Kodaly and Montessori towards bringing true musicality to children. By providing a physical grounding in rhythm and developing inner hearing through singing, children are equipped with the S.P.A.C.E. that they need to develop into the fascinating and successful adults that they will become. S.P.A.C.E. describes the activities of each Musicaliti session including Singing, Playing, Acting, Creating and Exploring, as well as summarising additional benefits: Social: Group music introduces friends and builds relationships Physical: By moving in time, children develop physical co-ordination Academic: Music practice makes learning new things easy Creative: Musical experience helps the brain to solve problems Emotional: Music is a healthy form of self-expression
