SUMMARY:The Power of Musical Play & The Art of Musical Play with Julie Wylie
DESCRIPTION:When: Saturday 28 September – 9:30-11am and 12pm – 1.30pm (Parent workshop 11:30 to midday)\nWhere: Westport Early learning Centre 48 Pakington Street.\nCost: Free for MENZA members or teachers who are part of an institution that is a MENZA member\, first year teachers and those currently enrolled in an education degree\, or $30 for non-members\nREGISTER HERE TODAY \nThe Power of Musical Play \nThe keys to a child’s learning are: \n\nBeing calm and alert (controlled by the lower brain).\nBeing in happy engagement with adults who value and respect them (controlled by the mid brain).\nForming memories (including language\, literacy and numeracy) through experiencing the world (controlled by the mid brain and cortex).\n\nThis workshop is designed to help participants gain an understanding of how music can be used in very specific ways to arouse or calm\, and regulate the brain. Many children in our schools and ECE centres are experiencing anxiety and stress. Musical play activates every part of the brain and promotes healthy brain growth and development.  \nParticipants will discover enjoyable ways to: \n\nInteract musically;\nUse the elements of music so that they become a natural part of children’s play;\nUse instructional songs in daily routines;\nMatch children’s energy levels and arouse or calm children through musical play.\n\n  \nThe Art of Musical Play \nMusical play is the child’s first language and is a natural part of the life and culture of children. It opens up an imaginative\, magical world of possibilities. Sensory musical play helps children to listen\, express\, feel\, move and develop a strong sense of self in relation to others. It structures the moment\, helping children to make sense of their world. Musical play can occur inside\, outside\, anywhere\, any time\, and is a wonderful way to support daily routines such as tidying up\, washing hands and learning to start or stop on cue.  \nThis workshop will offer many practical ideas about what to include in a musical play session and how to make mat time relevant to young children. It is designed to help participants understand the purpose of group music and musical play\, and how music can support numeracy and literacy. Musical play can weave all the strands of learning together and provides the warp and weft of the Early Childhood Curriculum\, Te Whāriki. \n  \nJulie was awarded the MNZM last year for services to Music Education and Musical Play Therapy and has presented numerous  workshops in New Zealand and overseas. Julie is a former Early Childhood Music Advisor for The Ministry of Education and lecturer in Early Childhood Development at the Christchurch College of Education.  \n

Are you seeking ways of bringing great singing and movement back into the classroom? This workshop will show you how using the Kodaly method to teach singing\, moving and dancing which will ignite a real love of singing tunefully in your classes. \nTaking the Stigma Away from Theory \nwith Judith Bell \n A fun interactive workshop where we get to try out the games and activities that make theory so popular at year 6-9 level as well as discussing the strategies and resources for running an after school theory club. Although much of the workshop is “unplugged” the workshop also covers some engaging ways technology is used in the club. \nQuirky Choir \nwith Heather Libeau-Dow \nThis year I take Junior and Senior choir in a large primary school; and a choir for 5-12 year olds in a very small school. These are for “all-comers”  and the challenge is to deliver sessions that are energetic and captivating. \nThe voice in the body is the vehicle for expression; there is emphasis on good posture\, connected breathing and great diction. As repertoire is the key to success\, a wide range of material is carefully selected; including engaging NZ compositions and songs from around the world. Orff Schulwerk processes are evident throughout-incorporating vocal exploration\, movement \, rounds and improvisation. \nThis workshop is geared to teachers responsible for primary choirs and classroom/assembly singing. Reflection and discussion around developing positive choir culture will conclude this session. \nSing\, Dance and Play with Juniors \nwith Celia Stewart \nThis workshop will incorporate a range of great ideas that will empower all teacher to introduce music activities in to their daily programme. Using speech rhymes as the motivator we will explore singing\, moving\, and playing experiences that will engage young children. The main elements of music\, beat\, rhythm\, dynamics\, pitch\, tempo and tone colour will be experienced in simple ways that all teachers can enjoy with their students. \n  \nThe Presenters \n Kate Husband – I have been teaching in classes for the past twenty years. I work in year 1-6 classes throughout the school week and teach two choirs for the Christchurch School of Music on Saturdays. I have been trained in Level 1 Orff and am part way through learning the Level 1 Kodaly method. I grew up off and on on the West Coast and am lucky enough to spend many holidays each year in Okarito – my favourite place. I am passionate about keeping the art of music alive in our classrooms and in providing manageable ways for teachers to explore these too. \nJudith Bell –Judith Bell has run the Chisnallwood Intermediate School music programme since 1999\, which provides instrumental and vocal lessons\, she and directs performance music groups such as all-comers-orchestra\, Jazz\, Irish and rock\, theory club\, computer music and sound tech training.
