Giveaway: Mi Clase de Música: Multiple Intelligences in one music CD!

admin — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:09:06 +0000

In a recent summer trip to Colombia, I had the opportunity to meet Freddy Morales, an early childhood educator who teaches music and movement classes to young children.

I had the opportunity to experience a class myself as a parent with my daughter who at that time was three years old. As a teacher of young children myself, I was impressed with how talented Freddy was in his ability to make connections with the children. Since I had a wonderful experience in his classes, I later discovered that he was teaching music and movement classes for babies at a learning center called Tralalá and happily enrolled my second child in a class just for babies! This time I learned that Freddy had his own music CD’s, and the main focus was to teach “music and movement” through multiple intelligences. My baby not only had a fun and educational time in his classes, but he also get to benefit from his music CD at home, where he dances to it in his high chair on a daily basis!

Freddy’s CD, “Mi Clase de Música“ has 13 tracks, and each track is geared toward exploring one or more intelligences. This music CD also has a lot of repetition, something that is very important for young children. It includes some Colombian rhythms and is full of a lot of fun. I have used some of the songs with my own students and they enjoy this production a lot. This music CD has been recorded in Colombia and is only in Spanish, a plus if you are looking for authentic materials to bring to your classes or use at home with your children.

The Giveway!

We would like one of our Facebook “likers” to be the first one to get a copy. We will be giving away the “Mi Clase de Música“ CD so you can sing our songs in your classroom with your students or at home with your child.

Upcoming Workshop: Everyday Spanish for Teachers

admin — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:53:51 +0000

Do you wish you…

knew some Spanish to share with your students but don’t know a word?
knew a song or game in Spanish to play with your students?

Do you want to…

bring deeper respect for other cultures by introducing a new language?
integrate Spanish with your curriculum with minimal effort?
include some Spanish in your daily schedule with your class?

Then this is right workshop for you!

Everyday Spanish for Teachers was designed for teachers who have little or no experience with the Spanish language. During the workshop, participants will play, sing, dance and enjoy puppet shows! At the end of the session, you will have a bag full of ideas ready to use with your students. All participants will receive a CD with songs and games to play in class and a CD with sentences that can be used in your daily routine. We hope you will join us for this very interactive learning session!!

In 2005, Carolina founded 1-2-3 Spanish Together, an early language music and curriculum designed to teach Spanish to children and their families and help other teachers learn the trade. We are very excited for TECPA to join forces with 123 Spanish!
