Orff Schulwerk, more relevant than ever!
As more and more children have increased screen time as a part of home, school, work and play time, Orff Schulwerk is more relevant than ever. Our class is a time for music making, creating movement, sounds, accompaniment, composition, improvisation, cooperative learning, individual expression, and problem solving. The student’s ideas and input is valued, encouraged and affects the final product. Consideration and compromise most likely took place to get there, skills that are valuable in so many areas of our lives. Skills that will certainly come in handy in relationships and jobs in the future! The collaboration found in this approach brings beauty, thoughtfulness and excitement and more.
