IMAGINE THAT! Cities Week 4

FOUNDATIONS OF LEARNING

I hope you and your child are enjoying the many sounds of the city through the many sounds on your Home CDs. Traffic Jammers (Home CD 1, track 2) is always a favorite of the children, sure to elicit lots of laughter. Listen for the great diversity among musical styles on the CDs. For example, jazz abounds in songs such as In the City and The Broom Man; traditional songs are heard in The Wheels on the Bus, Where Has My Little Dog Gone? and many more; and classical music tracks include Mussorgsky’s The Market Place at Limoges. These are just a few examples of the wide variety of pieces on your Home CDs. Exposure to many types of music allows your child’s appreciation for and understanding of music to grow.
