DANCE THE ALPHABET!

Children will move and groove from A to Z while learning and having fun! I will read my picture book FROM A TO Z WITH ENERGY! and we will do playful movement together that corresponds with each letter of the alphabet. The only requirement for this program would be a space, inside or outside, that allows children to move freely. It can be small or large, as long as there is an open area that is free from obstacles.

This program teaches about letters and other early literacy skills through movement and music. It is an active and lively session that invites children to do movements that correspond to each letter of the alphabet, practice large motor skills, and make up their own alphabet dances.

For younger children (ages 3-6), the focus will be on learning about letters kinesthetically, in a fun and engaging way. For older children (6-8), the focus will be on doing more challenging movements that correspond with different letters, and also putting the movements together to make dances.

About the Author

Connie is an author and dance educator. She uses movement to offer children playful, enriching learning experiences. She believes that all children should have the opportunity to participate in the arts, and that dance and other arts are not "extras," they are essential and transformational forces in our lives.

8 Things I Learned from My Cats about Writing Haiku – A Writing Workshop

Haiku is not just the world’s shortest poetry...or a unique part of Japanese culture...or even a school lesson about syllables. Haiku is also cat-like (compact, elegant, speaking volumes in a few choice ‘meows’)...and learning to write it will help you spy, pounce, and capture the ordinary moments of your day and turn them into something…
