When kids play with Music-Go-Rounds—in group games, listening & movement activities, at the whiteboard, on charts, or in centers—they build confidence and skills. Manipulatives are like hands for your brain: they help you “grasp,” understand, and remember concepts. Like building blocks, the elements of music can be combined in wondrous ways.
Begin with Mark Burrow's book. Mark’s teaching expertise and humor shine in his guide to musical elements using our unique silicone manipulatives. His 44 hands-on activities and movement games with Music-Go-Rounds for K-6 are grouped by Rhythm and meter, Melody and Harmony, Expression, and Form. Variations and extensions add flexibiltiy. His game-oriented approach makes concepts “stick,” and empowers kids to combine the elements and compose their own music.
To give you all the tools you need for the activities and games in the book, we have included the Elements MGRs used in them.
