EXPERIENCE IN ORGANIZING CLASSES OF PRIMARY SCHOOL PUPILS BY MEANS OF POP SINGING

Abstract

The article deals with junior schoolchildren’s involvement into the classes of pop singing. The topicality of the article is explained by the important role of music in the formation of the schoolchildren’s personality and the growing tendency to limit the interest of a significant part of the pupils in the variety-song genre. This gives rise to the need to develop a methodology that involves not only the formation of singing skills, but also the development of the younger schoolchildren’s musical and creative abilities and the education of their interest in the diverse and rich world of art. The aim of the article is to highlight the experimental experience of pop singing with pupils of junior classes which provides for the formation of children’s singing skills as a way of phonation- and quality-oriented, emotional-expressive and creative embodiment of the artistic-figurative content of the repertoire that corresponds to the children’s age characteristics. The activity of mass media in the popularization of children’s song shows, concerts and competitions is critically interpreted. Some features of the musical-cognitive activity performed by the schoolchildren representing the new “Z-generation” equipped with modern digital technologies are considered; the strengthening of the negative impact of impressions obtained as a result of free access to music and information sources of the children who do not have a developed artistic taste is analysed. The author describes the scientific approaches and principles that served as the basis for developing an experimental methodology for the formation of primary school pupils’ singing skills: humanistic, anthropological, individual, personal, multicultural; the use of their ideas contributes to the all-round development of the children’s musical talents, the upbringing of musical taste, creative ingenuity, culture of scenic behaviour, relationships and communication. The structure of variety-vocal combined with such components as the basic phonation skills is presented; the skills of expressive-variety performance; the skills of stage-scenic performance, as well as the criteria for assessing their formation degree demonstrated by the children’s regarding these components: vocal- and intonation-centred, artistic and performing, communicative and performing. The pedagogical conditions necessary for the successful teaching of the primary school pupils’ skills of pop singing are grounded. The step-by-step methodology facilitating the formation of the primary school pupils’ vocal-variety skills is presented, as well as the basic methods of working with them, including game forms of rhythm-motor and vocal-intonational exercises; teaching children to sing on the basis of a phased assimilation of systematized vocal-basic and specific variety skills; improvisational-plastic and theatricalized forms of children’s interpretation of the song repertoire; the use of modern information, communication, musical and technical means in order to develop children’s skills of self-control and creative communication. The comparative data of the diagnostic tests are presented according to which the children trained within the experimental methods demonstrated much higher results, which confirmed its effectiveness.
