Common misconception
Singing louder means the children are more engaged and singing better.
For children to develop sound intonation and accuracy, they need to sing gently and not be encouraged to always sing loudly.
Teacher tip
When we ask the children to sing louder, they will stop listening and lose some vocal control and the pitch matching will be less accurate.
