Making Music in Montessori cover

This book empowers Montessori teachers to confidently integrate music into their classrooms, inspiring children to explore their musical creativity and independence.

In Making Music in Montessori, educators are equipped with the essential knowledge, skills, and confidence to foster children's independence in reading, writing, playing, researching, and composing music. This book serves as a comprehensive guide for Montessori teachers, blending a friendly tone with practical advice. It acts as a handbook, a music theory mentor, a pedagogical manual, and an anthology of resources, all designed to enhance music education within the Montessori framework.

The primary aim of Making Music in Montessori is to empower teachers in their musical capabilities. With this newfound confidence, educators are better prepared to inspire their students to explore their musical creativity. When children leave a lesson eager to compose their own music, teachers will feel equipped to guide them effectively. This transformation shifts the classroom dynamic, creating an environment where music thrives alongside other subjects in the Montessori curriculum.

Before the insights found in Making Music in Montessori, many teachers may have only envisioned a vibrant classroom filled with musical exploration. Now, that vision can be realized. By encouraging educators of all musical backgrounds to engage deeply in music education, this book helps them cultivate a fertile environment for their students' imaginations to flourish. With practical strategies and a supportive approach, Making Music in Montessori is a vital resource for any Montessori teacher looking to integrate music into their students' learning experiences.
