How to Teach a Movement Activity

Today on the podcast, Anne & Victoria continue the conversation on how to successful scaffold movement or a game-like activity in the elementary music classroom with movement. Following a discussion about what makes this episode different than the two previous in our movement sequence, we’re sharing a couple of our favorite movement & folk dance inspired activities. Victoria shares Sashay the Donut with implications for using creative movement and creating opportunities for student choice. Anne shares Zemer Atik and how she scaffolds it based on form and duration. See a video of the full Zemer Atik dance here.
