Exploring notation using pitch

This Music video introduces teachers to techniques for exploring pitch and early notation with EYFS pupils. It demonstrates how to guide children in identifying and representing pitch through voice and symbols, using simple language like “squeaky” or “growly” to replace technical terms. The video also explores the sound and symbol game and other strategies that lay the groundwork for understanding traditional notation.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Music EYFS resources. It supports early musical development by encouraging sound exploration, creative notation, and foundational listening skills.
