Our
music & movement classes include singing... playing a variety of percussion instruments (such as resonator bars, glockenspiels,
rhythm sticks, and drums)... dancing... exploring movement and its associated language (marching, jumping, twirling, tapping, hopping, etc.)... developmentally appropriate
listening times... and learning tonal and rhythmic patterns.
We hope you enjoy these pictorial glimpses into just a few of our music & movement
activities!

Scarves help us explore both various ways of moving and the music to which we move.

With rhythm sticks, we explore different ways of playing. We can tap, rub, roll, thump, use
the sides or the ends, and more! We experience what it feels like to be steady. We play with the macro beat sometimes, and
with the micro beat other times. We experience different musical meters and tempos. As a bonus, we learn how to share and
pass out materials, and we learn how to put them away when we are done.

Resonator bars sometimes accompany our songs, helping to develop rhythm, pitch, and harmony.
|
|
Marching and moving to rhymes and to songs engages our imaginations, develops our large muscle
movements, and internalizes rhythm.
