Adapted Lessons
Many people with special needs express an interest in learning an instrument, but do not benefit from a traditional music lesson. At creative Connections we specialize in adapting instructional methods based on the person's strengths and learning styles. We provide in home adapted guitar and ukulele lessons.
A music therapist may adapt a lesson by:
-
color/letter/number coding instead of difficult musical notation
-
Alternate tuning for guitar
-
using of Chord Buddy for guitar
-
Enlarging or simplifying music to minimize distraction
-
Use of a picture schedule to structure the session
-
opportunities for sensory breaks or to engage in preferred music activities between more difficult tasks.
