A warm welcome to our February issue. By the time you’re reading this, hopefully the floods, strikes and January blues will have subsided, and the new term has started with aplomb (a word I still can’t say with a straight face, but you get the drift).
The focus of MT this month is Early Years, with articles addressing pedagogy, resources, getting back to basics, and encouraging creativity. Penny Osmond shares her experience with music and storytelling, drawing on research and creative ideas for using space, and established author (and teacher-trainer) Sue Nicholls explains the role music plays in tackling underdeveloped language skills – a worrying legacy of changes in societal behaviour and, of course, Covid-19. We’re grateful to Sue for generously sharing with MT readers her eBook Singing Circles, a comprehensive resource of songs and recordings freely available to download at end of her article.
