This review is from: Exploring Orff: A Teacher's Guide (Schott) (Paperback)

This book gives it all - from the overview of the ideas behind Orff instruction to the details of lesson planning. The grade levels are quite a bit too high for my public school system which has little space and resources, but the plans can be modified to fit. Lots of music samples are given with full analysis and a broad range of expansion ideas to deepen the children's learning. Love this book!
