Carnival of the Animals

 We started listening to Camille Saint-Saens "Carnival of the Animals" today in Kindergarten.  We listened to the "Chickens" and they got to bounce the eggs on the parachute.  We then listened to "Tortoises" which is very slow and calm.  I gave the students a stack of cups and told them to slowly make a tower of cups as high as they could.  Using the slow beat of the piece, they were able to focus and take their time.  Some towers got very high.  Some were very sturdy on the bottom which helped them go higher.  Very interactive classes today.
