While there are many singing materials written in the Chinese language, nonearranged in a sequential order, which Hungarian music educator Kodály believed is essential forpupils to build or extend their musical vocabulary and musical concepts progressively. The purposeof the study is to provide a set of sequenced Chinese materials for Year One Malaysian Chinesepupils to be used by general music teachers who teach in Chinese primary schools. Reflective actionresearch, document research, journal writings and voice recordings serve as the primary data foranalysis in this investigation. Data were analysed through thematic analysis, and conclusion of theanalysis served as a primary source in forming the sequence. 22 cycles of action research werecarried out in the classroom. In conclusion, a set of sequenced teaching materials was formed. Theimplication of this study introduces a core teaching sequence for music teachers to refer to whenthey sequence their teachingobjectives and materials. |
