Music for Learning and Literacy – Myths, Legends, and Fables

Grades 3-5

It’s music. It’s storytelling. It’s fun. AND it’s full of learning.
It’s Myths, Legends, and Fables.

Teachers can expect the children to be enthralled by masterful flute playing and storytelling.  Of primary importance in the program is attention to detail and nuance, the meaning of stories and the character traits of the heroes in them. The children are encouraged to look beyond the obvious and to express their own experience of the stories.  Exercises in critical and analytical thinking as well as references to history, culture and science are woven into the program.   A question and answer portion of the program allows the children to exercise appropriate curiosity and personal interest in the artist’s life and travels.
