Behaviour management and creativity through music
Our Professional Development workshops give you the confidence and tools to deliver music lessons in the classroom. Covering basic elements from the F-10 music curriculum, you will develop skills, ideas, and activities for immediate use. All events are designed for both generalist classroom teachers and music specialists.
All workshops are curriculum aligned to the relevant State music syllabus and aligned to AITSL Professional Standards for Teachers.
There are many challenges in the busy classroom such as behaviour management, a full curriculum, busy school calendar and more.
Join a Musica Viva Australia presenter in a workshop that focuses on how music activities can enhance your teaching strategies and classroom environment through creativity, self expression and music appreciation.
At this workshop you will:
- Engage in creative and interactive activities involving singing, playing, moving and listening to engage and extend students in their learning
- Explore a range of strategies for integrating music across behaviour management strategies
- Scaffold activities from simple to more complex
- Discover the benefits of music in fostering connection with you and your students
"Musica Viva PD has given me so many ideas to refresh my teaching & create new learning experiences for my students."
