CPD for Teachers: Celebrate Your Voice 21 Nov 2015
Shelve any preconceptions about having a good or bad voice and simply ignite your love and passion for singing. Explore and create with your voice and nurture your own vocal confidence through learning a variety of fantastic songs. The day will provide a range of creative ideas, structures and strategies for extending your use of singing in the classroom and getting your class really excited about singing. This will help you to deliver the Performing strand of the Music curriculum as well as being relevant to Composing strand units.
