Title: Can I play you my song?
First published: 1992
Description: "Using a whole language approach, author and educator Rena Upitis has written a unique book to help regular classroom and private music teachers recognize and foster children's attempts at notating music as they engage in improvisation and composition. Through a colorful and engaging narrative, Upitis describes a 'whole music' classroom, where teachers, using a child-centered environment, can introduce activities encouraging children to compose and notate their own works. Familiar techniques from a whole language classroom -- such as the use of writing folders and conferencing -- are refashioned in a music context." -- Back cover.
