DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM

Thursday, March 31
3:45 p.m.

A departure from customary procedure relative to demonstrations
has been attempted this year. Instead of the usual method of presenting
a very large number of people doing a great variety of activities in one
larze exhibition, smaller groups are attempting to demonstrate types of
activities and technigues of teaching that might be helpful to teachers
of physical education. The program which is to be given at this time is
an attempt to show some of the activities that are representative of pres~
ent day trends in the physical education fields. The committee hopes that
the delegates may find something worth-while and helpful in the program.

A demonstration of Rhythms for Primary Grades - presented by
the Kindergarten and Primary department of the Summit School, St. Paul,
Minnesota under the direction of ----~-~------~- += ------— MISS MURIEL LEE

In order that these children may be less self-conscious and
hence more natural it is requested that there be no
applause until their prozram has been completed.

The dances have been selected from a large group worked
out by the children during their regular rhythm periods.
The children have been taught to listen to the music,

and then express what they have heard. They have not
been shown or given suggesticns by the teacher. In work-
ing out story dances and simple folk formations, the
ideas, suggestions and organizations have come from
