Introduction:
Listen to a slow and fast beat on a drum, piano, etc. Ask the children to move to the beat in a variety of ways. Some ideas could be…
- Clap to the beat, clap hih, clap low, to the side etc.
- Keep the head going with their head, shoulders, arms, feet, etc. This could be done in a circle.
- Walk/run, hop/leap, jump and skip to the beat
