Music Enrichment: Kindergarten – Second Grade
$15.10
If you have enjoyed the music enrichment sections of our grade-by-grade Enrichment Guides, you will love our new supplement devoted exclusively to music. For each piece of music scheduled weekly in our Kindergarten, First Grade, and Second Grade Curriculum Manuals, Music Enrichment gives a short backstory on each piece and biographical information for its composer, as well as a few questions for discussion about the music being studied. Teach your child more about what the song is about, interesting facts about the instruments used in the song and how they work together, interesting aspects about the song’s structure, and why the composer wrote it.
Purchase of this book also includes links to Spotify and Youtube playlists where you can listen to the selections we have chosen, as well as iTunes links if you would like to purchase them.

Having this guide was very helpful because all the information was in one book and I didn’t have to look it up each time. However, most of the concepts were too difficult for the kindergarteners and 1st graders. Perhaps this book can be used for older grades and a simpler version can be made for the K-2 children?

Excellent guide! We use this with our whole family! (9 of us) It has made us love classical music even more than before! I love the biographies, the summary of the songs, the questions used to get you think about the songs. Very well done!
