The Ontario Orff Chapter presents “It’s Elemental: Lessons that Engage” with the clinicians Don Dupont and Brian Hiller.

This workshop will provide motivating lessons which focus on the process approach to teaching musical skills and concepts, while at the same time maintaining an aesthetic and creative classroom environment. Using a developmental, step by step teaching sequence and the elements of Orff Schulwerk, participants will gain experience in “teaching to the objective” through singing, movement, instrument and recorder playing, choral techniques and improvisation. Participants will leave with detailed lesson plans, songs and poems, as well as ideas for further creative exploration. Folk songs, original material, as well as pieces from the Orff-Schulwerk ‘Volumes’ will be presented.
