Justin Fletcher has the second session in this unit exploring nursery rhymes through movement.

2. To market, to market!

In the second session the rhymes of 鈥楾o market, to market鈥, 鈥楬ot cross buns鈥, 鈥楪reen cheese, yellow laces鈥, 鈥楾here was an old woman鈥 and 鈥楬orsey, Horsey鈥 take the children back to an old-fashioned market. They develop pathways further, taking turns to travel in and out of seated children. The work extends into creative tasks with a partner, using some contact. Rhythmand phrasing continue to be central and the programme ends by reminding us of the role of dance in health, fitness and well-being.

Teacher's Notes

Song video: 'Horsie, horsie, don't you stop!'

Warm-up: body shakes and drawing circles for the cart wheels.

To market, to market: alternating between galloping actions and cartwheel actions.

Hot cross buns: clapping gently in time with the song; then working in pairs creating two different clapping rhythms.

Green cheese, yellow laces: creating the market stalls in pairs.

There was an old woman: rocking a basket from side to side.

Cool down: clapping clippety-clop rhythms to 'Horsie, horsie'.
