Everything a Teacher Needs to Know,
This review is from: Dance, Turn, Hop, Learn!: Enriching Movement Activities for Preschoolers (Paperback)
Having taught kindergarten for over 27 years I wondered if I needed to purchase this book. WOW! - Was I suprised! This book includes everything a teacher would need to know. It puts in writing the reasons for the activities, centering on the child. I look forward to using this book as a teaching tool in my classes.

This review is from: Dance, Turn, Hop, Learn!: Enriching Movement Activities for Preschoolers (Paperback)
I've given this book to a dance teacher and also to moms of preschoolers. It really sparks fun and creativity. Each class is beautifully planned and includes more options to explore. But in addition to the wonderful individual dancing classes, you are given a grasp of the whole set of skill sets around movement and body awareness and socialization that can be offered to children. This book would be perfect for home-schoolers and anyone who works with young children.
