| description | Ongoing reforms in China's education system have highlighted the importance of junior high school music education in developing students' musical literacy and overall development. The Kodaly Method, with its focus on personalized and participatory teaching, is poised to enhance music education practices. The study delved into the practical application of the Kodaly Method at Mianzhu Middle School. Through in-depth interviews with two music teachers, this qualitative research explored the effectiveness of the Kodaly Method in aligning with the school's music curriculum standards. The findings indicate that, although the Kodaly Method has made significant strides in Chinese music education, regional disparities and varying levels of emphasis on music education persist. At Mianzhu Middle School, the two teachers demonstrated a foundational understanding of the Kodaly Method, incorporating Curwen hand signs and the Movable-do system into their classroom instruction. The method effectively enhanced students' musical interest and comprehension of abstract music theory. However, challenges such as limited parental involvement in music education and the need for continuous integration and adaptation with other teaching methodologies were identified. While the Kodaly Method is well-implemented at Mianzhu Middle School, further exploration of its practical application in junior high school settings is essential. This study serves as a reference for educational practices and reforms at Mianzhu Middle School and other schools with similar educational contexts.
