Course Curriculum
What to Expect:
Each of our 10 Term 3 Lessons On-Demand offer you and your child 40 minutes of carefully crafted activities each week, designed to foster learning, discovery, and fun together. These sessions are specifically chosen to support your child’s development in areas such as speech and communication, auditory processing, pro-social behaviour, motor skills, attention, self-regulation, reading, decision-making and memory.
In Term 3:
Your child will continue to consolidate their understanding of dynamics (piano/ forte) and tempo (lento/ presto) through singing, moving and playing instruments. Your child will learn about the elements of music through the theme of 'transport', singing and moving to songs about cars, buses, trains and trams. Your child will extend their understanding of high and low by learning about where these sounds live in the 'Music House' (music staff). The critical skill of left to right reading will be practised.

Testimonial from Belinda
"We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the Mini Maestros online classes. Mini Maestros have done their very best to make the classes as interactive as possible and sticking to the format of the face-to-face classes which I think helps our children with familiarity when they need it the most."
Testimonial from Amy
"The Mini Maestros online program was such a delight to have and brought huge value to myself and my young daughters. The babies programs was clever, fun and engaging, repetitive enough for the babies, but novel enough for the parents. Our family has really enjoyed our experience and I can't rate them highly enough. Having it all on Teachable and only a few clicks away is a huge bonus. Thanks team!"
Testimonial from Meaghan
"Thank you, Mini Maestros for your online classes! The classes are presented with perfect timing and early learning fun by Maddy, so much so that my daughter happily engages with her during activities - speaking the answers and singing where asked to."
