This session stems from the presenter’s own case study research into and use of Grace Nash’s approaches to musical understandings and the singing voices of young children. The session will focus on lessons used in her book Today with Music and their implications and use in the elementary/ choral classroom. Grace Nash’s frameworks are something that should not be overlooked, as she incorporated the methods of Laban, Orff, and Kodaly in schools before it was “hip” to do so. Insights from Nash continue to spark the presenter’s lifelong interest in music education and the young singer.
