Every music activity requires us to listen and respond to sound whether we are singing along to our iPods, moving to a beat. Listening is a fundamental aspect to music in the Curriculum and is intergrated throughout the four music strands. Children are used to having music playing in the background for example at home or the supermarket.Music can be used in the classroom to create a particular atmosphere of either calm or energy as the children take part in activities such as painting a picture or tyding a classroom. Children needs to acquire music vocabulary so that they can talk about the features of music that they notice  and discuss their responses to these features and they need also to play listening game regularly.
