摘要:The objective of this study was to investigate the difference between the children’s solfege singing with playing musical glasses skills in terms of the diction, pitch accuracy and rhythm between the treatment group and the control group. The solfege notation selected and evaluated in this study encompasses (i) so mi and (ii) so mi la. The duration of this study is two weeks. Fifty children from two preschools were selected as the respondents in this study. This study adopts the quasi-experimental design with one treatment group and one control group of twenty five children, respectively. The treatment group sang and playing musical glasses, while the control group sang without playing musical glasses. The study finding shows that the Kodaly teaching method applying playing musical glasses is more effective to increase the skills in diction, pitch accuracy and rhythm if compared to the teaching method without playing musical glasses. Solfege singing with playing musical glasses in Kodaly teaching method has given a positive impact based on the fact that the solfege notation needs to be used to improve children’s musical skills.
