"The Joy of Singing"
Moving on from the previous workshop, I have grasped the main elements of music along with being introduced to a range of musical pieces. In reflecting back to today's workshop, I felt confident towards my future implications to becoming a primary school teacher towards "teaching Singing.” I was able to reflect on the tone of voice including the five different tones to the different types of music. This helped me to improve my own vocal technique as well the future students at schools. For future implications, it will allow students to focus and improve on their skills prior to singing for an extended time. Future references towards becoming a teacher I would utilise various breathing and vocal exercises for students to develop awareness about learning how to sing. Possible assistance is needed to teaching students the tricky bits but overall the breathing exercises could be placed around the classroom for children to view and participate in the regular classroom musical activities.
