Class 5- Musical Lessons

Our friends in Class 5 had a great music class today. They started of high energy with a vocal warm up to get them ready to make music. They used special sounds to sing their own names and share them with their friends. Then the focused on feeling the beat of the sounds they made and to clap their hands to match. Finally, they passed the beat around the circle and that was great fun. Next, they sang Johnny One Hammer using voices and various body parts to feel the beat.They learned the musical names and symbols for loud music and for soft music. They listened to music excerpts and guessed together which ones were Forte and which ones piano. To shake things up everyone got up and moved their bodies to several melodies. It was awesome that everyone listened so carefully and froze exactly the moment the music would pause. Keep up the great work!

You have taken the first step of offering your child a 3 year framework that will extend and challenge their academic learning and expose them to a creative and imaginative world of artistic elements and possibilities.

Our low class size and student: teacher ratio allows your child to be taught at their own academic level and their learning to be tailored to their own strengths and challenges. By giving your child the opportunity to be part of this journey with us they are being immersed in an all encompassing curriculum that intertwines the academic and artistic learning that is relevant to real world success. This curriculum caters for all learners using Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences as well as Blooms Taxonomy to give your child the best learning outcomes. Themes are carried throughout the academic curriculum as well as the artistic curriculum to reinforce concepts and offer all types of learners to interpret and extend.

At Little Feet Little Faces your child is not just another face in the classroom. They are part of our team where every staff member knows their name and has taken the time to personally bond with your child and ensure a secure and trusting attachment has been forged. As a result of this your child comes to preschool happy and excited every day as they know they are safe and the staff love them. Our 3 year plan ensures that your child will receive a solid and comprehensive foundation of emergent and early literacy and mathematical concepts and skills allowing them to transition easily into some of Toronto’s most elite private elementary schools.
