Carl Orff’s method of movement expression is one of the most original and innovative methods
in preschool education. It is a method based on what is primal, innate, subconscious, providing children
with many more opportunities for experiencing, expressing themselves through movement, creating, and
experimenting, creating conditions for child development. A characteristic feature of this method is the
integration of music with movement.
Material and methods: The article is of a monographic nature.
Results: The article discusses the use of Carl Orff’s method in preschool education.
Conclusions: Carl Orff’s method is an example of a pedagogical tool that allows for the synthetic
achievement of educational goals at the preschool education level. It is a complementary program that
opens up greater possibilities for participation in culture than any other program usually limited to one
of its domains. It introduces intra- and interdisciplinary correlations, giving appropriate emphasis to
activities assigned to specific types of education or teaching actions.
