Move It. Twirl It. Let’s go, go, go!!Come on kids! - Use your rhythm sticks to rock, rip, twist and tap along to cool music from Rock ‘N Roll to Calypso, and Salsa to Classical. We’ll rocket to the moon and have a dance party in the sky, rock with the dinosaurs, use signal sticks to help planes land safely home, pretend we’re silly monkeys and more! Narrated activities are creative and clever and include imaginative play, partner activities, a circle game, twisting, a twirl dance, safety concepts and more.
Using rhythm sticks is always a classroom favorite and a great way to promote body identification, directionality, geographic directions, right/left discrimination, over/under, loud/soft, and improve rhythmic awareness. The guide includes lyrics, instructions and important concepts that are addressed in each activity.
