Help support Mrs. Hassanyn's Classroom

My goal this year is to teach music and movement in my after school class. Children who are consistently exposed to musical experiences gain neural connections that help with brain development and cognitive thinking. It has been proven that this exposure helps them do better in areas such as reading and math, helps them gain better control of their bodies, aids in focusing, promotes higher self-esteem and emphasizes teamwork. Using instruments will make a difference in the way that children learn. Music will also reinforce and emphasize self-discipline and self-control. Playing no longer has to only involve puppets, make-believe and toys. It can involve the arts, offering a tactile and multi-sensory experience for this age group. They will have the opportunity to master a variety of skills while moving and grooving to the music at the same time. Exposing young children to instruments can help to achieve the following: 1. increase gross and fine motor skills and helps to develop muscle tone in the hands and arms 2. develop a sense of beat and rhythm 3. reinforce hand-eye coordination 4. encourage imaginative play and storytelling through sound effects 5. increase listening and reading skills and develop patterning skills in math With these new tools and instruments, my children will be able to have a choice of musical instruments and develop a sense of teamwork and develop sense of cultural awareness.
