AnonyMouse_20414 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Hi there On my first year of FD and struggling to find any theory/references on language development through using musical instruments. Can any kind person put me on the right track. thank you
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I just googled 'music and language development' and found lots of results. One that looks interesting (with several references to follow up) is here.
Guest Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 we recently had training on using a sound beam. I've not used it yet but we were shown a couple of examples of how it can be used to encourage communication in children with PMLD. I'm sorry I've not got any more info or references but it might be another idea to search for if you want to look at very early language/ communication development
AnonyMouse_20414 Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 Thank you so much HappyMaz. The link you gave is just what i have been searching for for the past two days! Now I can finally complete my play and creativity assignment! thank you again!
Guest Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Hi Howard Gardner comes to mind also. Multiple intelligence theory. I hope this helps AM x
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 I must be having a dense day Anne Marie. Could you explain a bit more please? Thanks!
Guest Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Howard Gardner 1943 ~ How children learn ~ Linda Pound~ 2005~ page 63-66 Linguistic intelligence logical~mathematical intelligence bodily~kinaesthetic Spatial intelligence Naturalist intelegence Musical intelligence~ Gardner suggests that this intelligence: is the earliest to detect, captures the spirit of emotions, has links to our evolution, there are many with unusual talent, like other intelligences it does not stand alone. A musician needs more musical intelligence~ he or she may need spatial intelligence and bodily kinaesthetic intelligence and particularly interpersonal intelligence. Theory linked to musical intelligence not musical instruments........sorry if I have got it wrong! AM
Guest TinklePrincess Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Dearie me!! I could have done with this thread last week before handing my dissertation in!! There's so much more I could have said... OP, I would send you my reference list but I think it would be irrelevent now!!
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 I saw this on twitter, might be of interest or might not.
