Good day!
My name is Sarina Matthee and I am 26 years old. I am living in Pretoria and is working as a class assistant in a Grade 2 class. I like to hike and spend time with friends and family.
I completed my Bcom degree in 2016 and worked in exports for 3 years. I then decided to follow my dream of becoming a teacher and started my studies again.
I am excited for this module to help me understand and incorporate arts and music in my lessons and the improvement it will have on my lesson outcomes at the end. I feel that so learner can express themselves more easily in this manner.
I cannot believe this is my final blog post for LSKM and that we are almost done with this year.
I really enjoyed this module and I really gained a lot of knowledge with regards to music within the education system. I learned so much and how important it is to implement music in the foundation phase curriculum.
I didn’t manage to comment on the individual blogs, but I did read my groups individual blogs and it helped me to reflect on each study unit and think a little bit further.
What I found most challenging in this module was to think of new ways to use music concepts in games and make it fun for learner, as I am not strong musically, but the lecturer helped and guided us so nicely through everything.
I understood most of the study units and the lecturer did a great job explaining them to us and the thing that we might not understand.
In this module I found most of the information useful and will be able to use it in my future career as a teacher. Everything covered in this module was in my opinion very meaningful, helpful and valuable, to assist me in my future career.
