Module 2

A music teacher for twenty-seven years, I have always known that
music touches the soul. It can break through all kinds of barriers to
reach students in a very special way. It can be the means for each child to find their light.
I would like to share a story where music broke through a physical
barrier and made a connection with a young student. For a few years I
was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre-school handicapped
students one afternoon a week. One of my most memorable students was a
young girl I will call Vanessa. Vanessa was five years old, had
difficulty walking, and could not speak. We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap. One of her
favorite songs was "John the Rabbit." It was a call and response song
where I sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing
the repeating phrase, "Oh, yes!" Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. We probably performed that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. She never said or sang a word.
One day late in the school year, when the song was finished, Vanessa
turned around, looked me dead in the eye, clapped her tiny hands two
times and said the words "Oh, yes!" I opened my mouth in awe and for
that moment I was the one who could not speak. When my heart finally
started beating again, I looked over at the homeroom teacher to find her also speechless. Through music, we had made an awesome connection.
Several years later, I passed Vanessa on the street in town. I stopped my car and waved to say hello. She waved back with a big smile on her
face and then clapped her hands two times, mimicking the song we had
performed so many times in our music class. This precious little girl,
through her connection with music, left an impression on me that will
last forever. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. It is up to us as educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our
students. We all must find each child's light.

当了个音乐老师27年，我就知道音乐可以触及人心底的灵魂，它可以突破一切的
藩篱，以一种特殊的方式来引起学生的共呜。

通过这媒介，可以让每一个孩子找到自己的亮点。

我想分享一个有关音乐如何突破肢体的障碍，而打动到一个小学童的故事。

多年来，我有幸在一残障儿童学校任教，每星期教一个下午。

我印象最深刻的是一位名为Vanessa的小女孩。

Vanessa五岁，不良于行，亦不会说话。

上音乐课时，我们经
常坐在地上，而Vanessa就坐在我的大腿上。

她最喜爱的歌是“小白兔约翰”(John the Rabbit)。

这是一首呼应歌曲，我起唱，学生们一边拍两下手一边唱着答：“噢，是的！”我经常拉著Vanessa小手一起拍和，差不多每一课都唱著这首歌，我都和Vanessa一同拍和，可是她不曾说或唱过半句。

直至学期末的一天，当这首呼应歌完结时，Vanessa转个身，盯著我的眼睛，拍拍
她的小手两下，并说：“噢，是的！”我登时我张大了咀，错愕得目瞪口呆了好一会，我的神智终于恢愎过来，看着班主任老师，发现了她也同样地说不出话来。

音乐神奇地将人连系起来。

数年后，我在小镇的街上碰上Vanessa。

我停车和她招呼，她向我挥手，并报以灿
烂的笑容，然后拍两下手，意会著我们上课时那首唱过无数次的歌。

这可贵的小女孩，她与音乐的连系起来，给我留下了永远不能磨灭的印象。

每个孩子都有学习和成长的能力，就看我们教育工作者能否发现适合每个学生的方法。

我们必须找出每个孩子身上的亮点。
