Beginner Level
In this 3 day camp students will experience classical music while listening to the stories, playing games, moving, and making crafts. They will be introduced to the fragments from the most beloved pieces from young listeners' collections: Vivaldi's Spring (from The Four Seasons), Mozart's The Magic Flute, Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream, Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, Saint-Saëns's The Carnival of the Animals and others. On the first day of the camp, we will be listening to the story of a young tree while enjoying Vivaldi's concerto Spring. On the second day, we'll spend time with different animals while listening to the story and fragments from Saint-Saëns's The Carnival of the Animals. On the last day of the camp, we will travel to the Magic Forest with the help of our imagination and classical music. Every day will be finished with an open-ended craft (KIDS CAN MAKE WHATEVER THEY DECIDE) inspired by students' musical adventures and prepared materials. Day 1 Spring Story With Vivaldi's Music: Listen, Move, & Make Crafts Day 2 Saint-Saëns's The Carnival of the Animals With Games & Crafts Day 3 Travel to Magic Forest With Classical Music and Craft 🎶🤩 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)
Learning Goals
We will practice listening to short segments of classical music and expecting "clues" from the music. Students will be encouraged to use their imagination throughout the class. In addition, they will also exercise their fine motor skills during the craft time.

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.
