Abstract

This paper analyses experiential aspects of teaching music in the context of the well-being education and creating a stimulating environment for learning, development and psychological well-being of lower-grade pupils. The analysis involves music classes held with fourth-graders who were expected to connect a literary text with a corresponding musical composition they listened to. The research was conducted in the primary school “17. Oktobarˮ in Jagodina in September 2023. In accordance with the research topic which encompasses pupils’ achievement in two areas, musical creativity and listening to music, the content analysis was applied. The research results were analysed in relation to the choice of musical composition which pupils considered appropriate for the poem “Three Blind Miceˮ by Peđa Trajković. The qualitative analysis dealt with pupils’ choice of the musical characteristics based on which they connected the given composition with the poem. It can be concluded that pupils’ creative activities, a positive pedagogical atmosphere, open approach and constructive feedback contribute to the development of a pupil’s musical perception and better achievements in the area of listening to music.
