Rhythmic Kinesthetics
Fun Percussion-based Activities & Games for the Classroom
By Jeff Stewart
Rhythmic Kinesthetics presents a series of games and activities
incorporating music, movement, and motor skills that help express emotions,
build concentration, and sharpen sensory awareness.
A wonderful tool for individuals, educators, community facilitators,
and social workers, this curriculum provides an environment for people of all ages,
cultures, and abilities to participate, where they will apply and develop their music skills
through a hands-on approach.
The book features a variety of creative movement and social/communication activities
integrated with music to introduce and foster musical skills in a creative setting.
Rhythmic Kinesthetics provides diverse forms of world music-based compositions,
drum circle games, and activities using a wide variety of percussion-based instruments
including Boomwhackers, world drums, sound shapes/frame drums,
Orff instruments, and body percussion.
An instructional DVD showcasing both school and community performances
is included with the book, which is 100% reproducible.
