在教學實踐中培育幼兒的音樂智能

幼兒在幼稚園階段，是音樂智能發展的重要時期。教師可透過音樂作為媒介，就幼兒對音樂的興趣和欣賞能力，用「遊戲」方式和有效的方法來激發其創造性，以培養他們的音樂智能。本文旨在透過音樂活動中的歌唱和節奏律動遊戲，配合幼兒歌曲作範例，幫助教師在幼稚園課室裡如何運用唱歌和節奏律動遊戲來培育幼兒的音樂智能，並為教師提供一些實踐和培育幼兒音樂智能的策略。在培育幼童音樂智能的同時，教師的角色和音樂環境的創設扮演重要的地位。
The development of children’s musical intelligence is particularly crucial in the pre-primary stage. Teachers may cultivate such intelligence through music activities, games, and the use of media designed to stimulate children’s interest in and appreciation of music. The aim of this paper is to suggest strategies that pre-primary teachers can use to enhance children’s music intelligence in the classroom. It reports some of the strategies that teachers have found useful, such as the use of children songs as examples in singing and rhythmic movement activities. It considers the role of teachers and the establishment of a creative musical environment as essential elements in the cultivation of children’s musical intelligence.
