Music-making and creativity in the Middle and Upper Primary Years
- Monday, 28 September
- 12:00 pm
Making music and creativity sits at the heart of an authentic and engaging music education. This session will explore how we take foundational musical elements and scaffold the learning to a level where students can thrive, as they develop their own musical independence and creative approach to music-making. With a focus on the Middle and Upper Primary years, we will sing, move, create and improvise with succinct, accessible and sequential learning activities that are immediately transferrable back into your own creative music-making environment.
