Kodály Method

The Kodály method is an educational approach to teaching music, developed by Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály. It emphasizes the importance of music literacy and starts with singing as the primary way to learn music. Children use familiar songs and folk music to develop skills in rhythm, pitch, and notation. The method promotes active participation through singing, movement, and hearing music, often incorporating hand signs and solfege (do-re-mi) to help understand musical concepts. Overall, it aims to foster a deep appreciation for music while building essential musical skills in a structured and engaging way.
