Musik for the brain - Übersicht
Im Schuljahr 2017/2018 beauftragte die Children's Trust School in Tadworth, Surrey, Großbritannien, https://www.thechildrenstrust.org.uk/school , für Kinder und Jugendliche im Alter von 2-19 Jahren mit erworbenen Hirnverletzungen die Sounds of Intent Charity mit der Erstellung einer Reihe von Ressourcen, die Lehrkräfte, Betreuer und Eltern nutzen können, um Schüler und Studenten mit schweren Behinderungen durch Musik zu fördern. Zu diesem Zweck stellte der Trust einen Tag pro Woche einen Sounds of Intent-Musikberater ein, der mit den Kollegen zusammenarbeitete, um sicherzustellen, dass die erstellten Ressourcen es auch Nicht-Musikern ermöglichen, Musikaktivitäten problemlos in ihre tägliche Praxis einzubinden. Das Ergebnis war ein Satz von 36 Karten, die jeweils einem Sounds of Intent-Element in den reaktiven, proaktiven und interaktiven Bereichen der Stufen 1, 2 und 3 entsprechen. Einen Katalog der Karten mit Links zu den einzelnen Karten finden Sie hier.
Gedruckte Kartensätze sind bei The Trust erhältlich. Wenden Sie sich an enquiries@thechildrenstrust.org.uk oder telefonisch unter +44 (0) 1737 365 000.
