Event Description

Winter Teachers’ Workshop February 14—16

Music Mind Games Unit 1A With Michiko Yurko

Music Mind Games is a successful and popular method to teach students music theory and guide students to become musically literate. This hands-on workshop covers basic music theory concepts such as the musical alphabet, intervals, rhythm reading, rhythm math, melodic dictation, solfegge, Curwen hand signs, the grand staff, alto and tenor clefs, musical symbols, tempos, beginning key signatures and beginning scale study.

Unit 1A covers about 55 games. Each game is played in the same sequence that they can be played with students. This unit prepares the teachers to take the beginning curriculum and games they learn back to their students. Some student observation will be included to give teachers the opportunity to see games in practice, learn how much can be accomplished in a short period of time, and observe the joy with which students of all ages embrace learning with this method.
