All Together Now : For Mixed Age Classes
Two 10-week programs, entitled Nimble & Quick and Twist & Turn, are designed to be taught to children of mixed ages. Activities are written for the core age group, ages 1 – 3, with adaptations for babies and extensions for preschoolers provided. The teacher is free to vary the activities according to the makeup of each individual class.
Mixed-age classes allow families with limited time to all come to the same class and give families an opportunity to develop a shared repertoire of music and childhood games. Mixed-age classes are ideal for new studios since teachers can offer mixed ages until they have sufficient interest to form classes of separate ages.
Nimble & Quick and Twist & Turn are based on nursery rhymes – the beloved poems and chants handed down from generation to generation! Nursery rhymes have the staying power of a lasting art form. They offer today’s children the wisdom of the ages as well as what current research and practice tell us children need: communication, movement, interaction, repetition, and cultural customs – all experienced playfully.
