Music therapy and social relations in early childhood education: Intervention proposal.

Abstract

This Music Therapy intervention proposal in the educational context is aimed at 5-year-old school students and arises from the need to prevent and address possible social conflicts in the classroom. The Early Childhood Education stage is a period of full personal growth in which each child is in a process of forming their own personality and identity. To contribute to this process, the main objective of this intervention proposal is to improve group cohesion and socio-affective skills of an approximate number of 10 participants for the prevention of bullying in later stages. To do this, an eight-week multimodal project is proposed that focuses on the dynamics of the group structure through the experimental improvisation of Riordon-Bruscia and the introduction to GIM under a game dynamic that provokes opportunities for social interaction evaluated through the sociometric method. After the implementation of this proposal, it is expected to achieve an improvement in emotional intelligence data and in the strengthening of the group structure, in addition to contributing to the propagation of the benefits of Music Therapy in the educational context, offering a possible tool for the prevention of bullying.
