Music Teaching in the First Three Grades of Primary School in the Republic of Croatia

Topic of the paper is music teaching in the first three grades of primary school in the Republic of Croatia. In 2006/7 a new syllabus for primary schools entered into force and the previous integrative model of music teaching was abandoned. An open pattern of music teaching became the obligatory pattern according to which the music teaching in primary schools is to be realised. Central activity of the open pattern is listening to music. Within the framework of music teaching in the first three grades of primary school teaching areas of singing, playing an instrument, listening to music as well as elements of musical creativity have been performed while in the fourth grade the teaching areas include singing, listening and introduction to music, performing music, musical literacy, musical games. In Croatian primary schools in the first four grades the annual number of teaching classes in music amounts to 35 i.e. music is taught one teaching class a week. Teaching is performed by a class teacher who teaches all other compulsory subjects.
