Our methodological development is based on the realisation that although young children (aged 6-10) benefit most from and are aspired most by constant movement, active involvement, experience based, creative activities in the classroom that allow self-expression, current Hungarian music pedagogy is mostly theory-centred, and draws mainly on passive and static methodologies in approaches to music education. The main feature of our model is the dominant presence of movement 1) in the acquisition of musical elements and concepts, 2) in the practice of developing different music skills, and 3) besides reproducing music, in the creation and development of musical reception skills.

In our model we propose to enrich the traditionally three-stage Hungarian music teaching process – which is mainly based on auditive experiences gained by singing – by integrating movement. In our view while traditional singing-based music education approaches music learning predominantly from the side of musical hearing, by the conscious integration of motions into the process of the musical elements’ acquisition, the aural musical experiences gained by singing will be completed with kinaesthetic and, in many cases, visual experiences as well. With the unity of listening-seeing-body we can address children with different learning strategies at the same time. Our aim is to integrate movement into primary school education at all levels and on the whole spectrum of the curriculum – not only in the first two years –, and to always suit it to the musical skills, co-ordination and concentration skills of the target age group.

In our exercises the movements are always fitted to (a) particular aspect(s) of music, that is, we create a choreography that correlates with sounding music. The music material applied can be a melody sung by the participants, or a recorded piece. Initially we use movement to develop and improve a sense of steady beat. When children are able to perform the steady beat well, we move forward trying to have them express the metre - that is stress-relationships - by their gestures, just as the motivic structure of the sung songs. Given that movement is a natural component of developing one’s sense of rhythm it is emphasized in our model. We find it important that for the students to get bodily and lived experience of rhythm, so we try to perform the different rhythmic phrases by using various movements tailored to the body. In line with Kodály principles, polyphony and the training of polyphonic skills has a key role of our methodology. In this process our first goal is to improve concentration and to train children to be able to divide attention. We apply numerous exercises from the earliest stages of music education in which students are required to focus on one thing first, then to divide their attention between two or more activities. In our music pedagogical innovation, we find it of great importance to make the so-called active listening to music a regular and integral part of general music education. In our practice we associate different kinds of movements or movement choreographies to the music listening activities.

We consider it important to offer different types of movement opportunities and motion choreographies for each skill-building area and for the gaining of music knowledge, and preferably use a variety of motion and spatial formations.

Types and benefits of applied movement choreographies based on the number of participants involved

  • Activities the students can do individually (individual game), relying on their own creativity and existing knowledge
  • Activities performed in pairs (partner games). It has two advantages, on the one hand, it is more motivating to work together with someone, and on the other hand, by pairing up a less skilful student with a more able one individual development can take place.
  • Collective activities in which the whole group can participate. These so-called creative singing-games are mostly performed with a partner – often swapping partners during a song – in a circle, so the students experience the musical activity as a collective, playful experience. A game in which each member of the group is equally important because the game can only be successful if everyone pays attention and do their best. During these creative-singing games the students experience responsibility because one’s fault undermines the whole group’s efforts, also, the joy of support and help, because in the pair activities a more skilful student may help their pair, the importance of acceptance, because during swapping pair one may need to do an exercise with somebody they may not necessarily like.

conductor game expressing motifs or postman game or creative singing games expressing formal units

activities applied during the preparation phase with increasing emphasis on students’ individual ideas and creativity 

during singing the teacher performs the steady beat by different gestures changing these gestures by musical entities, while the students imitate them in mirror; initially the change in the movement expresses only the extent of each melodic entity, later also the relation of these units to each other

see methodological description in the Preparation section

see methodological description in the Preparation section

conductor game expressing motifs  

mirror game in pairs

during singing a selected student performs motif-based movements different in each unit while the class imitates the movements;
movement expresses the extension of a melodic entity, later also the relation of these units to each other
 

during singing students stand face to face with their partner, one of them improvise movements to the form of the song (strophic structure) while the other mirrors these

ball passing game    
during singing the students stand in a circle passing around a ball, but passing it always only at the first beat of each motif to their neighbour    
postman game    
students stand in a large circle; one of the students holds a ball and during the first musical phrase walks to another student then at the end of the phrase pass the ball to him; in the second musical phrase this new student walks to a third child and at the end of the phrase passes the ball to him etc.    
rainbow arch drawing arm movement    
during singing or listening to a new song the students draw rainbow arch into the air from right to left then from left to right with their arms following the exact extension of a given melodic entity    
creative singing game expressing formal units    
during singing we express different formal units with direction changes – stepping in circle inwards or outwards, walking the circle clockwise or inversely, walking in the circle-line forwards or backwards;
we may express different melodic entities by changing partners as well
   

2. Teaching a new rhythm value 

Preparation

Acquisition

Practice

creative singing games that exactly follow the song rhythm

activities expressing and indicating a song’s rhythm and the steady beat together

creative singing games that either follow exactly the song’s rhythm or combine it with the steady beat

individual game stepping the steady beat on the spot and emphasizing it by leaning heavily side to side according to the beat while simultaneously clapping the song rhythm also side to side partner games
performing a movement sequence initially imitating the teacher’s patterns then individually in which the so-called body-rhythm movements are wed to the texted singing see methodological description in the Preparation section
applying increasingly complex movement combinations
see methodological description in the Preparation section circle game type of activity mostly with partner swaps in which the whole class takes part
partner games expressing the song rhythm by having students stand (represent) for each beat, while the number of their raised arms indicate the number of rhythm values that fall on the beat they stand for see methodological description in the Preparation section
applying increasingly complex movement combinations
creative singing game in which rhythm of the song is expressed in interaction with the partner but the choreography does not necessarily follow the so-called ‘body-rhythm’ movements  
circle game type of activity mostly with partner swaps in which the whole class takes part the pupils draw as many lines into shapes – e.g. hearts – drawn on the board and representing beat as many rhythm value falls into each beat creative singing games using the new rhythm value in rhythm ostinato
a creative singing game in which rhythm of the song is expressed in interaction with the partner and which may also express formal units by changing partner or direction;
the choreography does not necessarily follow the so-called ‘body-rhythm’ movements
the activity visualizes the relation of the new rhythm value and the rhythm clearly; it is an excellent way to introduce the new rhythm value’s name and its notation applying body-rhythm movements the students perform rhythm ostinato along their singing initially imitating the teacher’s movements then individually
    ostinato-based pair activities
creative singing games combining the song rhythm and beat   performing ostinato along with a peer – eg. by clapping each other’s palms on particular rhythm values of the ostinato – helps less skilful students to perform the exercise successfully because they can rely on their more capable partner
partner games   circle game type of, ostinato-based game that involves partner swaps
a creative singing game in which one of the partners’ gestures follow exactly the song rhythm while the other student performs the steady beat with a different movement while interacting each other   games played with partner swaps in one circle or in two concentric circles – the outer circle faces inwards, the inner one outwards to form pairs – in which besides ostinato performing, formal characteristics of the song can be emphasized
circle game type of activity mostly with partner swaps in which the whole class takes part    

a creative singing game in which the song rhythm and the steady beat are expressed alternately or even together by the movements;
the choreography does not necessarily follow the so-called ‘body-rhythm’ movements;the choreography may express the form of the song as well 

   

activities combining song rhythm and beat

   

stepping the steady beat on the spot and emphasizing it by leaning heavily side to side according to the beat while simultaneously clapping the song rhythm also side to side

   

the clear changes of sides help the pupils to gain body experience about the relation of the beat and the given rhythm value, that is, gains first hand kinaesthetic experience about their relation

   

expressing the song rhythm by having students stand (represent) for each beat, while the number of their raised arms indicate the number of rhythm values that fall on the beat they stand for

   

visualizing the beat and the song rhythm together expresses the relation between beat and rhythm value well

   

 

Preparation

Acquisition

Practice

creative singing games following the melody line

selected games applied during the Preparation phase

creative singing games following the melody line

individual game

see methodological description in the Preparation section

individual or pair activities

three main types may be applied:

• we draw the melodic line with both hands before our bodies, showing the melodic line vertically while singing the lyrics

• while singing we show the melodic line horizontally with either hand before our body and, by changing hands the formal units also can be expressed

• we associate a gesture of each tone of the given song's tone-set, preferably expressing the intervallic relations, and accompany the singing with these movements

  
  see methodological description in the Preparation section 
  creative singing games combining the melody line and the beat
  a game that emphasizes the song’s form by swapping partner or changing direction, some parts showing the melody others the beat
partner game    
a game that follows the song’s rhythm and in which the movements – clapping, touching the body, snapping, etc. – express the melodic line and, consequently, the relevant interval relations between the pitches      
activity expressing both the melodic line and rhythm visually    
expressing the song rhythm by standing in a position indicated by the melodic line    
students form the rhythm of a well-known song’s motif in such a way that each student represents a beat, while the number of their raised arms indicate the number of rhythm values that fall on the beat they represent; then they choose their posture - standing, crouching, stretching - according to the melodic line of the given motif    

In our model we intend to work out a new rhythm-performing system as well. This system, named as the ‘body-rhythm’, is essentially the kinaesthetic representation of the rhythm-syllable system used in the traditional Hungarian music education, we apply these two methods together in our model. The key idea is that we match each rhythm value with a particular movement. We expect that – after due practice – the movements become closely associated with the different rhythm values thus, on the one hand, the rhythm phrases performed by the body-rhythm can provide visual support in the process of decoding the heard values, and on the other hand, during the process of reproducing familiar or unfamiliar rhythm phrases the children are able consciously to define the heard values without using the rhythm-syllables.

In our methodology we use the body-rhythm in rhythm identification, reading, an especially in echo exercises.

In our music pedagogical development, we find it of great importance to make the so-called active music listening a regular and integral part of general music education. In our experience, primarily school-age students (first four grades) react to music instinctively with movements and the silent, focused listening attitude required from them feels strange and abstract to them. Based on these insights as well as in line with the pedagogical objective to educate our students on an attentive, understanding and appreciative attitude to listening to music, the listening activities applied in our methodology allow students to express specific, pre-defined components of the music through movement. Due to the repeated listening, children become able to follow and express by motions more and more consciously and precisely the given musical component. Although in these exercises, students get to choose the movements freely – so the activities provide space for creativity and self-expression – their movements are always controlled by the given music.

Types of movements and exercises applied during listening to music

    • expressing tempo change with movement
    • identifying distinct timbres with different movements

    • expressing the metre with differentiated movements
    • expressing and indicating melodic entities extent with movements and their change
    • expressing the identity, difference, or similarity of melodic lines with movements or their change
  • pair activities – in which the students stand in pairs and follow a different component of the music with their movement
    • expressing loud and soft with different movements (one of the partners is allowed to move only to the loud sections, the other to the soft ones)
    • expressing the instrumental colour (each student has to follow a different instrument with their movement)
    • expressing solo – tutti (one of the partners is allowed to move only to the solo, the other only to the tutti parts)

    • expressing loud-soft with the measure and style of the walking (eg. loud = marching; soft = walking on tiptoe)
    • expressing tempo changes with walking strictly to the steady beat
  • expressing melodic line and/or musical character drawn with one hand into the air
    • following the melodic line of the entire piece with the movement
    • expressing a selected melodic theme or pattern with movement, otherwise motionless listening to music
  • representing the musical character with free movement choreography
    • individual improvisations
    • improvisation in pair or collectively in smaller groups, even with following the differentiated instrumental colour of each instrument
