We’re back for another season of Teaching Music Tomorrow! Today, Anne and Victoria are talking all about open space, and how to scaffold the opportunity to move independently in the elementary music classroom.

Anne shares how she begins in self-space with the song Allie Galloo, and how she scaffolds allowing kindergarten students to move to a new “spot” to explore non locomotor movement in new locations and shared space. She also shares how she sequences Mouse Mousie for students to be successful moving in open space.

Victoria shares how she uses Ickle Ockle as an opportunity for students to not only practice musical concepts and skills, but also practice movement skills. She discusses ways for students to visualize “swimming” through open space to stay safe.
