The ability to actively listen is a crucial skill in school children. From following directions from the teacher to communicating with their peers, those children who can make sense of their world through the auditory abilities have a greater opportunity to interact with and learn from those around them. Good auditory skills help students overcome the distractions inherent in the background noise and activities in a classroom, and those skills can help them stay focused. |
The Upado Unlimited website provides customers with audio recordings of songs from the Music Pattern Song Books so that each xylophone, recorder, hand bells or piano musician can practice active listening by hearing the recording and then playing the matching tunes on their instruments. Free audio tracks of the song patterns can be found at: www.upadounlimited.com/music-book-audio |
some of the duets to practice active listening. By putting the device between them, they can watch and listen to the video to help them learn their separate parts. You tube videos can be found at: www.upadounlimited.com/videos Students can listen to any of the songs on the website and play along with the recordings. |
Wishing you joy on your musical journey!
