The language becomes more and more mature to express and learn the basic ability of music. That is the stage from feeling → concrete concept → language expression → reading and writing → to creation.

The teaching of singing songs is first driven by the rhythmic language, followed by the vocabulary and rhythm, and then extended to the practice of musical phrases.

The content of the teaching materials should be taken from folk songs of the country. The practice of rhythm instruments is based on the stubborn bass as the accompaniment, and the form adopts the harmonious accompaniment of fifths, that is, using the tonic and dominant notes of a tune as the accompaniment mode, which can be moved according to the different tonality. Commonly used instruments include xylophone, iron Piano, recorder, guitar, etc…. Improvisation is also one of the key points of teaching. At the beginning, students are taught to play stubborn bass, and students can freely create tunes that match the same tonality. From simple tunes, they adopt the method of canon rotation.
