給音樂潛能班的媽咪們~關於音樂潛能班

2008年03月21日

親愛的媽咪們: 能參予各位孩子生命中重要的音樂學習, 這小紫老師來說是一份無上的榮幸.我們音樂潛能班的目地有二: 一、提供孩子們在音樂藝術的體驗及智能發展. 二、藉由跨出這小小的藝術一步, 除了能讓孩子們的成長更快樂與豐富外,更得以增進親子間的互動。 當然,這當中學習的成果是由老師及學生二方面的完美配合才得以有最好的成就. 在這音樂的學習過程中, 若您小紫老師的課程教授方法及安排有任何的問題, 請您不吝給予指正. 您的熱誠參與, 才是我在教學過程中最大的助力. 這份簡單的音樂潛能班介紹希望能提供您對音樂潛能班的上課方式及內容有更深的了解, 若您對上課內容或作業有任何的問題,請隨時提出和小紫老師討論 課程哲學: 音樂的學習過程和語言的學習過程是極為類似. 在孩子會說出第一句話之前, 他們需先在聽覺上收受各種不同的字彙在語言上. 先以聽為先,後為說,然後才識字,最後為寫.孩子是聽了數以萬次的“媽媽”二個字,才能夠說的出這二個字,進而認的這二個字的寫法,最後,可能在國小二年級,九歲的時候才能正確地寫出這二個字. 小紫老師的音樂潛能課程提供孩子們一個舒適且豐富的音樂環境. 在這個環境中, 有的孩子會很活躍地參與每個活動, 有的孩子會安靜地坐在一旁觀看著其它人的動作. 對孩子而言, 這只是學習方式的不同, 並不代表那一種參與方式才是正確. 媽咪請不要急著在孩子還沒作好心理上準備時去勉強他作他不想作的參與行為. 在音樂的學習過程中, 聽覺上的知識建立也是應前置於任何的教學步驟. 在聽的夠熟之後, 進而才能以演唱或樂器演奏的方式來表達, 最後, 進階到讀譜、寫譜的學習. 在聽覺上的認識還不夠足夠時,練琴及讀譜對大多數孩子而言, 只是片刻記憶要求及運動覺練習.對實際的音樂學習, 並無多大的助益.因此,除了旋律與節奏的訓練涵養外,在孩子發展較充份的音樂語彙後,小紫老師將會配合芬貝爾鋼琴教本讓孩子在鍵盤上從語句的學習到樂曲的練習有一系列且完整的課程。由於它有別於舊式僵化的單音技巧練習,是從主屬音開始架構,因此一開始的進度會隨著協調性的進步慢慢加快,請家長拭目以待!讓孩子從喜歡哼唱到喜歡練習是一條漫長的路,期待您的鼓勵讓我們在音樂世界中有亮麗的演出。 問題集: 1. 為什麼老師所唱的曲子及節奏朗誦很多沒有歌詞? 當所教的歌曲中包涵有有歌詞時, 尤其是兒歌, 大半部份的孩子會傾向於專注於歌詞的學習, 而忘了音樂的存在. 歌詞是屬於語文方面的學習, 在這個僅有的三十分鐘中, 小紫老師所希望的是把孩子的注意力都集中到音樂上, 而非語文上. 待孩子能很完整地把一首曲子的音樂層面吸收內化並表達出來時, 再加入語文的學習, 才能達到二全其美的學習效果. 2. 老師所唱的曲子好像很困難, 大人們都很難學的起來. 這些曲子對孩子們會丕會也太難了? 這些曲子對大人們會覺得困難的原因是因為這些曲子不是大小調或普通拍子的音樂.大人們所熟悉的音樂大多是大調及二分拍的曲子, 而為了增加孩子們的音樂性, 孩子應儘早多接觸不同的調性及拍號.這些調式及節奏, 對尚未定型於任何音樂型式的孩子而言, 一點都不難. 3. 為什麼我們課堂上沒有使用很多不同的樂器? 課程的生動性及充實性並不取決於所使用的樂器多少. 以音樂為課程主題來呈現內容, 是讓孩子學習音樂的最佳方法. 適當的樂器的使用可以提昇孩子的學習動機, 但過多的樂器使用反而易造成孩子對音樂專注力的分心. 4. 我的孩子都不參與課堂上的活動, 怎麼辦? 大多數不參予課程的孩子, 並不是他們不喜歡上課, 相反地, 他們都是靜靜地把課堂上所發生的一切完全觀察並吸收成自己的. 他們只是還對整個環境沒熟悉到可以放開懷來. 並不是不想參加, 希望家長不要用強迫性的方式來要求孩子參加, 這樣的作法, 通常只會適得其反.
