As this a technology of music education class, I have worked to find as many websites as possible to get students more involved in music, using technology. Music education is first and foremost about the children, and by allowing students to vitalize the resources before them, instead of having technology used only by teachers students can become much more connected to music.
My find this week is Sphinx Kids! This website is full of interactive programs to get more students involved in classical music. The graphics are kid friendly, and there are many different sections to explore including matching games, practice sessions, and instrument discovery rooms. If you ever get the chance to use it in the classroom, I would highly recommend it! Kids go crazy for technology, and using it for educational purposes is always a great tool!
Your sites are always so interesting and seem so useful in the classroom. I could definitely see how this site would be very beneficial to helping our students gain skill and awareness of classical music.
