11am Fri 10th June

 

In a small class of ASN children, each child is unique and may possess
a different profile of abilities and strengths and face a different blend of challenges.
How can we best approach creative music activities and other work with such groups?

This training offers an introduction to a conceptual framework developed by
ABC Music using 8 dimensions to assess the challenges an individual child may
face in taking part in an activity- with a range of intervention strategies provided
for each dimension to help every child reach their full potential.

While this work was formulated with ASN children in mind, it of course applies equally to mainstream children,
of any age, and indeed to all of us- as we all possess a different blend of strengthand weaknesses.
