Book Description
"The movements and formations that compose traditional folk dance give a unique insight into the experiences, values, and social structure [of] the cultures from which they come. The inclusion of dance and creative movement in the elementary music classroom supports the physical, social, and musical growth of students. The experience of folk dance also supports the development of a greater understanding and sensitivity towards diverse cultures and musical traditions."--Abstract.
