Each workshop will be broken down into 3 half hour sessions consisting of (1) teaching and games, (2) activity time, (3) teaching, games and singing. The material will be targeted towards kids in K5-4th grade.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Noteman loves to teach the parts of a note, as well as introduce children to his friends, Whole Note, Half Note, Quarter Note, and Sixteenth Note (Mr. Noteman&#8217;s first name is, of course, Eighth).<\/p>\n<p>By the end of the workshops, each of the children will have accomplished the following goals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enjoy singing and making music<\/li>\n<li>Sing on pitch<\/li>\n<li>Identify the parts of a note<\/li>\n<li>Identify the 5 different notes (whole, half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth)<\/li>\n<li>Know the musical alphabet, A-G, and know how it relates to the keyboard and staff<\/li>\n<li>Recognize the &#8220;G&#8221; clef, and know that it identifies the G line<\/li>\n<li>Able to read simple rhythms using half, quarter, &amp; eighth notes<\/li>\n<li>Able to sight sing simple melodies that move by step or stay on the same pitch<\/li>\n<li>Perform a song from memory, with the children&#8217;s choir, demonstrating good singing technique<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Mr. Noteman&#8217;s Music for Kids should be a real help to children and their families!<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a tentative outline: <a href=\"https:\/\/mrnoteman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/Workshop-1-Mr.-Noteman-Music-for-Kids.pdf\">Workshop 1 &#8211; Mr. Noteman Music for Kids<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Check it out and let me know what you think!<\/p>\n\n<!-- Facebook Like Button v1.9.6 BEGIN [http:\/\/blog.bottomlessinc.com] -->\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fmrnoteman.com%2Findex.php%2Fmusic-for-kids-workshop%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height: 30px; align: left; margin: 2px 0px 2px 0px\"><\/iframe>\n<!-- Facebook Like Button END -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My head is full of all sorts of ideas for creating meaningful music experiences for kids.
