Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of over 200 songs, poems, movement activities, lesson plans, instrumental accompaniments, and suggestions for the teacher, all designed to involve the whole child in singing, speech and movement, and most importantly in developing their creativity. Because of this holistic approach, the material in the book can be used with all children in classrooms or with small groups and are particularly effective when working with children Grades 3 and 4, and with children who have special problems. Each song, poem, and activity is designed to catch the interest of the children while at the same time, helping them develop another learning concept such as coordination, note-reading, sequencing ability, body awareness, or visual and auditory awareness. Specific attention is given to problems the teacher might encounter such as helping out-of-tuners or dealing with children who have learning disabilities, especially when these children are integrated into a regular classroom.
