Jazzy Gestures (or Move to the Music)
A rousing game of Jazzy Gestures is always met with great Jubilation and excellent unbridled
free-form moving regardless of the grade level involved; everyone loves to play
this! I play snippets of a wide variety of musical styles, tempos, moods and
the students have to move the way the music sounds or makes them feel. When the
music stops, they must absolutely freeze and wait for the next snippet to
start, and so on. The music can be stopped and started many times to encourage
attentiveness. The more dramatic the change in musical styles, the more
creativity the students will show in their moving.
J Song
(Teaching, learning, giggling about, or
illustrating a song is also a fun way to spend five minutes! The suggested tune
for each of these ABC songs is the familiar tune, Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. Enjoy!)
Jelly beans and jumping jacks,
June, July are back to back,
Jam and joy and jog and jar,
Jupiter is very far.
"J" words, they are fun to learn
Now you find one, it's your turn!
