3. The Melodic Classroom: Contexts, Trends, and Competencies for Elementary Coaching, Ninth Version, is tailored for students studying elementary or music education. All through eight versions, this publication has led the field. Its objective has been to aid educators―some with limited music knowledge―in preparing to integrate music into their students’ daily lives. The demonstration lessons remain the core of the book’s enduring success. Supported by a collection of children’s songs from around the world, instructional materials for acquiring basic musical instruments, and the theoretical, pedagogical, and practical foundations necessary for reaching all learners, both pre-service and in-service educators can create their classrooms’ expressive learning environments.
