Program Description		Dalcroze Eurhythmics is a music education method in which students learn about and develop musical skill through movement. The body is used as a musical instrument in itself: clapping, running, swinging arms, vocalization, etc., to explore how movement affects music and vice versa. The class is full of movement, since memories based on physical experiences are comparatively more vivid in our minds than ones generated through aural or visual learning. For younger children and musical beginners, Dalcroze is used to explore all the aspects of music, whereas with more experienced music students, rhythm becomes a sort of focal point in Dalcroze training.
Program Format		A variety of movement and music making activities are used in Dalcroze. This class is completely customizable to your class’s unique needs.
Objectives		• The students will participate in activities that teach and/or deepen their understanding of the fundamentals of music. • The students will develop a connection between their physical capabilities and aspects of music, such as pulse, speed, dynamics, etc. • The students will interact with the presenter in various ways: immediate-response activities versus preparing/practicing routine movements, and verbal versus nonverbal (musical and physical) cues.
National Standards to which this program aligns		Music 1. Singing, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music. 2. Performing on instruments, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music. 3. Improvising melodies, variations, and accompaniments. 5. Reading and notating music. 6.

The herbalist is in! The herbalist grows and uses herbs and spices to cure common ailments, to reduce discomfort, and to season foods. In the early 1800's, herbalists were often called upon by townspeople who could not afford to seek medical attention from a doctor. Our herbalist will provide a look at her typical daily responsibilities and explain how she works in cooperation with the local doctor in a small southern community in the early 1800's.

Gr. 4-12 Civil War Medicine and Spies

Civil War Medicine

During this exciting lesson, students will meet and interact with a battlefield nurse from the Civil War. In 1863, little was known about the causes, cures, and spread of diseases. Soldiers who became ill had little chance of surviving. However, Civil War medical practices resulted in improved techniques and more effective methods of treatment. Students will experience many of these techniques and develop an understanding of medical advances.

Civil War Spies

It's 1866 and the Civil War has just ended. Espionage in the Civil War was quite common and unbelievably easy. Newspapers constantly ran accounts of what the armies were planning. In some cases, military leaders planted false newspaper stories, knowing that the opposing army would read them. The best spies of the era were women. Women were considered harmless, and perhaps they took advantage of that assumption. Most of the spy records in the North and the South were destroyed to protect the spies and their families. Countless more spies took their secrets with them to their graves. This interactive electronic field trip challenges students to examine historical tricks of the trade during wartime. Students are challenged to use critical thinking, decision making, and questioning strategies as the explore the Civil War.
