Music Supported Literacy
Broer, Kathleen
Online Submission
I taught music in three schools where 10-40% of the student population spoke another language at home. I ran an all-select choir for Kindergarten, Primary, Junior and Intermediate students once per week. I was interested in answering the following questions: What impact might weekly rehearsals of an all-select choir have on language learning? How do specific choral activities help to improve auditory skills necessary for literacy? A bibliography is included, and a Sample Repertoire List is appended. (Contains 2 tables, 3 figures, and 1 footnote.)
