Learn strategies for incorporating music and movement in your classroom. Experience creative ways to inspire your students in any discipline using drama, music, literature, visual art and movement. Learn how to create structures (simple chants, songs or movement sequences) to reinforce and develop your curriculum, while appealing to all styles of learning. Recall a math formula, count by 2’s, reinforce the water cycle, remember a story—and MORE!
