The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra Education Team equips early childhood educators with the knowledge and tools to engage their students in music on a daily basis. Simple activities and engaging lessons emphasize using music within the framework of current early childhood curricula to teach all children, including those of diverse abilities and neurotypes. With the book “Giraffes Can’t Dance” at its heart, this workshop will explore ways to use music and creative movement to teach early literacy, math, and social-emotional concepts.

Note: Approximately three weeks before the webinar, registrants will receive an email to confirm receipt of their registration request and important instructions that should be viewed prior to the day of the session.
