Brown Teddy Bears Lesson 3

Remember, NO CLASS on Sept. 6th!

All “Home Fun Activities” are optional, but if you choose to do them, remember to keep the puppets and other props in your tote bag so that your child can use them class. We won’t use them every week, but when we do, your child will be thrilled to participate with their own creations!

Learning to keep a steady beat is foundational to learning to perform rhythms. In class we use both our bodies and simple instruments to keep the beat and we imitate simple rhythm patterns with our voices. As the heartbeat is the child’s most familiar natural rhythm, we reference it in class to introduce the concept of a steady beat.

Optional home fun activity: Make the Zoo puppets on page 33 of your workbook
(Remember, these activities are optional but can be a great bonding experience to do with your child during the week.)

For my convenience, I have preloaded content for the whole semester. I will update each future post with specific time-sensitive info before I send the link each week. If you choose to read ahead you might see details that don’t apply to your child’s class. For this reason I do not recommend reading ahead. Thank you!
