MOVEMENT: Skipping or Galloping ‘Some children willbe able to skip during the refrain of “Rig. ‘aig Jig.” Others will only beable to gallop. Skipping is ‘developmentally harder and comes with practice. Encourage those who know how to skip by allowing them to skip in- stead of gallop. Have those children who are ready to eam to skip do step-hop on one foo, then onthe other. The step- hop becomes skipping when te sep lasts longer and covers a greater distance than the hop. Make sure they can distin- gush skipping from galloping and work toward performing either movement when asked. MOVEMENT: Golloping with 0 Partner If more practice is needed in galloping with «partner, have a volunteer walk alone for sixteen beats and quickly choose a partner for galloping forthe next sixteen beats. When the ‘walking sounds repeat, both children walk separately, each choosing a new partaet for galloping. Continue until all children are involved. Provide rhythmic suppor by using a hhand drum to play quarter notes for walking and long-short sounds for galloping.
