About Time!

Energetic rhythmic routines are active learning at its very best.

18 familiar classroom songs are presented with notated rhythm patterns and high-energy, kinesthetic stick routines: tap them on your knees, click them together, cross with a neighbor, and more! The simple rhythms can be learned by rote or read off the reproducible student pages. Plus, concise background information makes it easy to lead a discussion about the history and culture of each piece.

The included enhanced SoundTrax CD has PDFs of all pages. Grades 1-6.
