Implementation
The only prerequisites for teaching these lessons are: a pleasant singing voice, an appreciation for music, and the ability to work with young children. Generally, preparation of all 5 segments takes less than an hour. Within a few weeks, the class routine becomes familiar, and children delight in their ability to anticipate and participate in the activities. Specific recommendations are offered for:
Preschool and Kindergarten Teachers
Infants and Toddlers
Parents, Homeschoolers and Music Teachers
Training Seminars with Monique
