This child likes to be surrounded by sound, tap out a beat when thinking, sing and listen to music, and play with rhythms. Teachers can encourage learning by:
- Providing musical instruments for the children to use
- Playing background music as preschoolers play in learning centers or children work on learning activities
- Teaching age-appropriate songs that relate to the unit of study
- Clapping rhythms (school-age children can learn a memory verse by saying it in rhythm)
- Having children draw illustrations for songs or words in songs
