| Summary |
"This text uses an innovative approach to teaching music to young children, using research findings to determine and substantiate good practice. It is designed to be valuable to music teachers, early childhood and elementary teachers, and parents, emphasizing the belief that the nurturing of children's musical interest is of great import to their development and emotional lives. The more each teacher or parent knows and understands young children and the complex interactions of the learning process, the better able they are to judge what is best for a single child or group of children."--BOOK JACKET. |
