The "Music Curriculum Standards" propose that music education takes aesthetic education as the core, cultivates students' interest in learning music, develops students' creativity, and ultimately achieves the purpose of cultivating all-round development of people. It can be seen that "taking interests as motivation" is one of the core concepts proposed in the new music curriculum standards. The traditional music appreciation class model is often: first listening, repeat listening, listening again, and then analyzing speed, intensity, mood, melody trend changes, etc., which is boring and boring. Unlike students in lower primary schools who "mainly think in images, they are easily confused." The physiological and psychological characteristics of "people are attracted by colorful and dynamic pictures and are prone to emotional responses to light and beautiful melodies" are obviously inconsistent with each other. Students learn completely passively. They have no interest in the content they learn, and the teaching effect can be imagined.

Therefore, in the teaching of music appreciation in lower grades, teachers should strive to let students enter the classroom with strong interest, always maintain a positive attitude towards learning music, and thus generate a pleasant experience, making the classroom a pleasant experience for students. An important platform for music, understanding music, enjoying music, and feeling the charm of music.
