Taller de escritura creativa en Educación Primaria, a partir de una melodía existente.

Abstract

Con la realización de este trabajo se pretende promover la escritura creativa en niños y niñas de Educación Primaria, empleando la escucha de melodías como inspiración e hilo conductor de sus propios relatos. Se fomentará la escritura y la lectura como medio para plasmar ideas y sentimientos, y enriquecer su vocabulario. Por otro lado, se favorecerá la escucha activa y el disfrute de la música, y cómo dependiendo de quién la escuche, cuándo y en qué situación, ésta puede transmitir diferentes emociones, y se profundizará en la imaginación de los participantes, ampliando la temática de los relatos.

This paper aims to establish some links between creative writing and music, being music a source of inspiration to create narratives. Music and liryc has been closely related since Antiquity. Thus, they share several features; for instance, both are means for expressing emotions and thoughts. There have been so many writing workshops in which images have been used to inspire, but only a few which have used music for this purpose. It could be said that writing a music composition is similar to writing a text in a foreign language, since the composer is expressing an idea through musical notes, although a written text provides more specific information than a melody. Working with active listening will foster participant’s imagination, broaden the text's topics and they will learn how to listen and enjoy music.
