The Music Together® In School Curriculum
Our comprehensive music curriculum for children from birth through, and including, kindergarten offers a consistently high level of music education that's geared to the way children naturally learn. By giving children what they need to grow musically in a playful, developmentally appropriate, and musically rich way, our research-based curriculum and proven program model support children’s development of basic music competence as well as development in domains important to success in school and life.
And, because we bring our research-based model to the entire school community—children, teachers, and families alike—we also support family engagement, parent-child relationships, and classroom teacher professional development.
Our in-school curriculum is made up of five key elements:
- music and movement activities
- home component and family engagement support
- weekly music classes taught by highly trained Music Together specialists
- services and support for music specialists
