Page last updated at 1:18 PM, 30/01/2008
We want to provide learning opportunities for children to:
- investigate and use a variety of media and techniques such as painting, drawing, printing and modelling with fabrics, clay and other materials;
- express thoughts and feelings in pictures, paintings and models;
- use role play or puppets to recreate and invent situations;
- use verbal and non verbal language in role-play;
- listen and respond to sounds, rhythms, songs and a variety of music;
- make music by singing, clapping and playing percussion instruments use instruments by themselves and in groups to invent music which expresses their thoughts and feelings;
- move rhythmically and expressively to music;
- participate in simple dances and singing games.
