The transitional Semibreves class is planned in accordance with the Early Years Foundation Stage and aims to give children the skills and confidence to join in with more formal group singing and rhythmic activities.
They will be encouraged to begin listen to peers’ music-making and continue to provide and respond to opinions about and compare music that they have heard as well as music that they have composed. They will continue to build on their existing bank of music-related vocabulary and develop the understanding to use these words in the context of musical activities.
The children will be encouraged to develop confidence in suggesting ideas for composition or musical tasks and will participate in termly or bi-termly performances.
This class is designed to provide a smooth transition in the future musical life of the children, both in school and out.
