Wii Music for the american schools

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nintendo is making a collaboration with The National Association for Music Education to give American schools Wii Music and Wii to give children a first approach of music and reveal their creative potential. “The goal of Wii Music is to inspire people of all ages to enjoy music,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “By partnering with educators and bringing Wii Music into their classrooms, we hope to give students a memorable, hands-on experience that helps them discover their own creative voice.”

The pics looks nice, can't wait for this game

^Click on cards to level'em up!!!^ =D

So schools can't afford real instruments anymore?



A reason of using Wii Music in class is to stimulate students to interest in studying.Like some schools in Japan that use NDS as a learning tool.

Btw , i really like LKS art style. :)

I think that this mini-game shown on the pic is a good way to teach about "tempo".

It's not about instruments. It's about basic concepts like rhythm and tempo; you know a way to introduce kids to music.
