Beginner Level
In this 3-day camp, students will visit 3 fantastic places: Magic Forest, Land of Sweets, and Amazing Toy Store. The first day, Papageno, one of the main characters from Mozart's opera The Magic Flute, will lead us through the Magic Forest. On the second day, the Sugar Plum Fairy, a character from Tchaikovsky's ballet The Nutcracker, will give us a musical tour through the Land of Sweets. On the third day, we will stop by the Amazing Toy Store (from the ballet La Boutique Fantasque) and get acquainted with Uncle Drosselmeyer, a famous toy maker (a character from Tchaikovsky's ballet The Nutcracker), and his magic toys. Every day students will listen to numerous fragments of classical music by famous composers, like Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Rossini, Mussorgsky, and others. Every time children go on a journey they will reenact parts of different characters and "help" one of them by listening to classical music and solving musical riddles. In the second portion of the camp, students will make open-ended crafts inspired by their musical journeys and prepared materials. 🎶🤩 My main goal is to familiarize children with famous pieces of classical music and make them realize how much fun classical music is. Class is appropriate for (𝐂𝐄𝐅𝐑: B1, B2, C1, C2) Day 1 Travel to the Magic Forest and Make a Craft! Day 2 Travel to the Land of Sweets and Make a Craft! Day 3 Visit a Fantastic Toy Store and Make a Craft! PLEASE MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE LIST OF MATERIALS NEEDED FOR EACH CRAFT. ALSO, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT FOR THE CRAFT PORTION OF THE CLASS, PARENTAL GUIDANCE IS REQUIRED FOR YOUNGER STUDENTS (AGES 4-5) AND RECOMMENDED FOR OLDER ONES (AGES 6-8) DUE TO USE OF SCISSORS AND OTHER MATERIALS.
Learning Goals
Students will get familiarized with fragments of famous classical pieces. They will practice listening to short segments of classical music and expect the "clues" from the music. Students will be encouraged to use their creative thinking while playing musical games and making crafts.
Other Details

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a graduate of Temple University in Philadelphia with bachelor degree in Psychology. Also, I studied Early Childhood Education in Israel and Ukraine.
Before I started teaching on Outschool, I've being teaching creativity classes inspired by classical music and fine art in afternoon preschool program working with Pre-K through 2 Grade children. Earlier, I was a homeschooling mom for 7 years.
I believe that childhood is the best time to inspire human creativity. By regularly exposing children to works of art and classical music as well as helping kids to process their experiences through games, crafts, and dramatic play, adults have an opportunity to cultivate their creativity.
I LOVE reading books in general and children's literature in particular. I think there are so many great and beautiful kids' books waiting to be discovered. I also love co-creating with the kids: bouncing my ideas of theirs.
