2010-2011 CRANSTON LOCATION FALL SCHEDULE:      

 

CREATIVE MOVEMENT
(ages 18 mths -2)
A 30 minute class which focuses on following direction, forming social and emotional skills based on taking turns and participating in dance related activities. The children participate with Mom or Dad until they are ready to go it alone with their friends. Once they participate in the class without the help of a parent, they will soon be placed into the next level. Some children will spend a full season in this level whereas others will proceed to the next level within the school year. Just as each child is an individual, we teach them as such and progress them into the next level only when they are ready. It is at the discretion of the instructor as to when your child is ready to move on.
Within the class, the children will work on gross motor skills, memorization skills, rhythm, and fine motor skills. They fine tune their social skills by learning how to interact with other children by enjoying each other’s company, taking turns, and supporting each other while in class.
