Ha! Wow! I got to watch a master in action. Our music teacher got these kids to learn how to EXPRESS! I had them in a good position for her "launching." They knew all the words to the songs, they knew the songs' contexts in the play... What they didn't know was HOW TO MOVE. Have you ever watched a gifted music teacher in action? Oh, what a pleasure. Talk about taking the ball and running with it! Passing, running, passing, setting up formations, experimenting, seeing what works, taking kids' ideas, pasting in your own, molding a new plan, finding a synthesis. Wow. All I can say is I Got to Watch. And it was a privilege. You want to see some cool songs and dances? They'll be happenin', in my class play. (Whew) (Thanks to the music teachers of the world) They got jazz.
