music class

I enrolled Ella in a Music Together class. She has had 4 classes so far.

She spends most of her class time (45 minutes) trying to get at the instruments in the bins that are piled up under a bakers rack that is used for storage/desk purposes. She also loves playing with the blinds that run along one side of the room.

Her teacher (Ms. La La) says that it takes them about 6 classes to get into the participation, etc. She does participate some of the time, other times she will stop what she is doing and look at all of us, or listen to the music and dance a little.

There are some articles out there about how these music classes can help to stimulate children with disorders and help them learn better. It is a little early to tell if it is helping Ella, but time will tell.
