An early-childhood and early-elementary music curriculum that develops tuneful singing, beat competence, expressive movement, listening, and musical responsiveness through sequenced activities.
First Steps in Music for Preschool and Beyond is John M. Feierabend's general-music curriculum for preschool and early-elementary learners. Sequenced singing, movement, beat-keeping, echo songs, songtales, circle games, fingerplays, pitch exploration, and listening activities help children become tuneful, beatful, and artful before formal music literacy instruction.
