In this three-session short course, Anthony and Stephen will introduce their new Dalcroze pedagogy book, Make it Music — Dalcroze Strategies for Every Classroom, and guide the participants through the tools to create over 125,000 unique Dalcroze inspired activities and games. In addition to the hands-on activities, Stephen and Anthony will also discuss the philosophy behind “open-ended lesson planning” and encourage all participants to take on the "teaching artist" title.
