These 30-minute lessons can be used over five days or five weeks. If you choose, add a snack, team composition competition, and a music-related craft to make each class one to two hours. Your students will love listening, learning, coloring, composing, and performing their own pieces in the styles of Wolfgang Mozart, Clara Schumann, Johann Sebastian Bach, and Ludwig van Beethoven. The lessons wrap up with a student-focused day of composition and performance. Ample play time is included with suggested activities. Students’ crafty compositions can be assembled into a booklet (materials not included) as a nice little memento and source of pride for students and their parents. Compose Yourself! is sure to please student, parent, and teacher! Great for kids ages 4–8.
