SPRING 2010 KINDERMUSIK PROGRAM INFORMATION

ALL Classes require a minimum enrollment of 5 children.
There are 15 weeks of classes in each semester.

KINDERMUSIK OUR TIME (18 months - 3 years):                             "Away We Go"
15 weeks/40 minutes

This total parent/child class encourages your child to uncover an engaging musical world while building confidence, self-control and communication skills.  Singing, imitating sounds, rhyming and object identification foster language skills.  Creative movement to musical "moods" develops a sense of balance, timing and spatial awareness.  Listening and turn-taking encourage blossoming social skills.  CDs, literature books, home journal, instrument and carry-all are included in the At-Home materials.

KINDERMUSIK IMAGINE THAT (3 - 4 years)                    "Toys I Make, Trips I Take"
15 weeks/45 minutes

Recognizing the child's need for independence as well as more socialization time with peers, this partial separation class takes your child on a musical journey of discovery and exploration limited only by the power of imagination.  Pretend-play activities are integrated with music, vocal development, storytelling, movement, and literature to capture your child's potential to learn, and to encourage cognitive and literacy skills, creativity and individuality.  Parents join the class during the last 15 minutes for class review and a discussion of At-Home activities.  Supplies include CDs, literature books, an activity play set, and a simple instrument.

KINDERMUSIK for the YOUNG CHILD (4 - 7 years):                     A Two-Year Course
15 weeks/60 minutes 

KINDERMUSIK for the YOUNG CHILD is a 4-semester, total separation program except for the last 5 minutes of class, which is a parent/child review time.  Activities focus on the development of auditory and singing skills, creative and synchronized movement, listening skills, and becoming acquainted with a variety of musical instruments.  A number of Music Institute of Long Island instrumental students are KINDERMUSIK alumni whose level of musical knowledge was greatly enhanced by the Young Child course.  The cost includes KINDERMUSIK supplies as follows: a KINDERMUSIK Bag (for semester #1 students only), Semester Activities Folder, Glockenspiel (semester #1), or Dulcimer (semester #3), Games Bag, Family Songbook and a Home CD.  NOTE: Children must do each semester in consecutive order.  A Semester #3 student must have completed semesters #1 (Fall) and #2 (Spring).
