Middle group. Dance with rowan

Girls of the middle group dance with a sprig of rowan. Song “There is a shadow on the path”, lyrics by Elena Blagina.

On the path there is shadow-shadow-shadow, Solar net. Through the tyn, through the fence, a branch bent.

I’ll come running, I’ll gallop, I’ll stand up on my toes! I’ll grab the branch by the braid and get the berries!

Chorus: Berries, berries, rowan berries. Berries, berries, rowan berries.

I’ll sit by the fence, and carefully string a rowan berry onto the silk.

Put on your bitter beads, become smart, branch! On the path there is shadow-shadow-shadow, Solar net.

Senior group. Entrance to the matinee with leaves

The guys in the older group dance to the song “Dance with Autumn.” Song author Tatyana Petrova, arrangement Alexander Zorin, performer Alina Afanasova.

Look at the leaf - it’s burning like a lantern. The leaf wants to dance - He flies in the dance with us!

We put the foot on the toe and knock everything with the heel. We will add smooth gestures, And then we will spin.

The Beauty Queen invited us to dance. She gave me a leaf, traces of autumn everywhere...

Autumn in polka circles with us, Sings a song merrily. Today we will all become friends with our autumn round dance.

Preparatory group. Dance "Falling Leaves".

The older the children, the more complex the movements and dances. The preparatory group dances to the song “It’s not easy to rain today.” Author - N. Naydenova, arrangement - Alexander Zorin, vocals - Marina Melnik.

Today the rain is not simple, today the rain is golden! He is not aquatic at all, there is not a single cloud.

Leaf fall, leaf fall! Leaves are spinning, flying, Leaves are flying in the wind, Falling leaves!

Autumn day is so good, How many leaves can you collect! Golden large bouquet - Greetings from autumn to us!

Leaf fall, leaf fall! Leaves are spinning, flying, Leaves are flying in the wind, Falling leaves!

Explanatory note

One of the richest and most effective means of aesthetic education for preschool children is choreography.

Dance is a set of expressive and organized movements, subordinated to a general rhythm, embodied in a completed composition. It is important to teach a child to understand the language of dance and use it for self-expression.

This manual is devoted to one of the components of dance - vocabulary, that is, movements.

The purpose of this manual is to help music directors, educators and teachers of choreographic studios (clubs) in organizing choreographic work in children's educational institutions.

The manual is a methodological support for programs on rhythm, choreography, and musical education and contains a description of a variety of dance movements, basic positions of arms and legs, and positions in pairs. The teacher is given the opportunity to select and vary movements according to the degree of complexity, taking into account the age characteristics, perception abilities and preparedness of the children.

I hope that the material in the methodological guide “List of dance movements used in working with preschool children” will help preschool teachers to make their work more competent, interesting and entertaining.

Starting leg positions

The basic stance is heels together, toes apart. For older children, the toes of the feet are turned as far as possible to the sides (in choreography - 1st position), for younger children - at an angle of 450 (“house”).

“Narrow path” - heels and toes together, feet parallel (for all age groups) in choreography - 6th position.

“Wide path” - feet shoulder-width apart, parallel.

Sit on your knees - lowering yourself low, sit on both knees. Knees pressed firmly to the floor.

While in any of the positions described above, the legs should be kept straight, the gluteal muscles tense, the back straight, the stomach tucked, the weight of the body should be evenly distributed on both feet, resting on the toes. There is no need to require full eversion of the foot in positions from preschoolers. It is enough if the toes are turned at right angles.

Initial hand positions

Below - arms are lowered along the body.

In front - arms extended at chest level (parallel to the floor).

At the top - arms are raised as high as possible above the head. At a younger age, the height of the arms is arbitrary.

To the sides - shoulders and arms form one straight line.

Hands can be open - palms up (“towards the sun”).

Hands can be closed - palms down (looking at the floor).

“Belt” - palms on the waist, thumbs behind, the rest in front. Shoulders and elbows are slightly laid back.

“Fists on the side” - the fingers are slightly clenched into fists, which are placed on the waist with the back side inward.

“Shelf” - arms bent at the elbows, folded in front of the chest. The right hand rests on the left hand (the hand of the right hand lies on the elbow of the left and vice versa).

“Matryoshka” - hands (shelf), the index finger of the right (left) hand makes a “dimple" on the cheek of the same name. The left (right) palm supports the elbow of the other hand and is slightly moved forward (in weight).

“Skirt” - with the thumb, index and middle fingers (pinch) of both hands, take the edges of the skirt and spread your arms to the sides - up.

“Apron” - grab the front of the skirt with a pinch from both sides and lift it up.

Behind the back - hands are connected behind the back just below the waist. The back of the palm of the left hand lies in the right palm. The fingers are slightly clenched, the shoulders and elbows are pulled back.

Hand positions in pairs

•Children stand nearby (look in one direction):

“Arrow” - hands are connected in the “Forward” position; the name of the “arrow” changes depending on the angle: narrow, wide.

“Collars” - hands are connected in the “Up” position. The girl's palm is placed underneath the palm of the boy's closed hand.

“Weave” - hands are connected crosswise.

“Bow” - the same, but the elbows are rounded and raised forward - up, the arms are not tense.

“Sleigh” - the boy stands in front of the girl with his back to her and gives her both hands back. The girl stands facing the boy's back and takes his hands.

• Children stand with their shoulders of the same name together (looking in different directions):

“Lamb” - the arms of the same name are connected crosswise at the elbows, the hand is clenched into a fist. Free hands in any of the listed positions.

“Spinner” - hands of the same name are connected in the “Up” position.

Spin like a spinner - joining your hands in the “Spinner” position, move as if catching up with each other in place.

“Star” (three or more children) – stand behind each other, joining hands of the same name in the “Up” position.

Spin like a star - joining your hands in the “Star” position, move as if catching up with each other in place.

“Double belt” - if the children stand with their left shoulders facing each other, then with their left hands they clasp the partner’s waist from the front and vice versa. You can change the shoulders for each musical phrase.

•Children stand facing each other:

“Boat” - hands are joined in the “sideways” position. They are open at chest level.

“Collars” (narrow) - arms connected at the top, (wide) - to the sides - up.

Hand movements

“Breeze” - smooth cross movements of the arms above the head. The work involves the shoulder, forearm, and hand.

“Ribbons” - alternate smooth movements of the right and left hands up and down in front of you.

“Wings” - smooth flapping movements with arms spread to the sides. It should be remembered that when raising the arms, the hands are lowered, and when lowering the “wing” arms, the elbows are slightly bent, the hands are expressively raised up.

“Singing hands” - from the “To the sides” position, with a soft movement of the hands, they move towards each other, as if collecting elastic air in front of them. The arms are also moved plastically to the sides. The body helps express the movement by leaning forward slightly and then bending back slightly.

“Motor” - arms bent at the elbows in front of the chest, palms spinning around one another. Fast or slow.

Claps

“Ladushki” - clapping the palms in front or behind (behind the back is performed with free, not tense, arms bent at the elbows, moving towards each other.

“Pancakes” - on “one” - strike with the right palm on the left, on “two” - vice versa (the hands are relaxed, staccato), with a turn of the hand.

The claps can be loud or quiet, depending on the dynamics of the musical image.

“Scymbals” - younger age - “shake off your palms”, older age - the palms of both hands imitate the sliding movements of orchestral cymbals: the right hand swings from top to bottom, the left hand moves from bottom to top.

“Tambourine” - the left palm is the supporting one (like the lid of a tambourine, the fingers of the right hand hit it. Change the supporting hand. The blow is strong.

“Bells” - active claps overhead. The movement is bright, with a large scope of arms slightly bent at the elbows. This movement requires complete freedom of the upper shoulder girdle.

“Bells” - small claps with the straight fingers of one hand on the palm of the other. The blows are light and quiet. The arms can be bent at the elbows, straightened or raised to the side (to the right or left). There are possible options for “bells” that sound near the right ear or near the left.

“Catching mosquitoes” - light, ringing claps with straight palms to the right, to the left of the body, above and below with arms bent at the elbows.

Claps in pairs:

“Wall” - the palms of the hands bent at the elbows (in front) go towards the partner’s hands. The clap is performed in the middle of the distance between the children.

“Big tambourine” - one of the partners alternately holds open their palms with their elbows bent or arms extended forward, and the other hits them with their palms.

“Cross” - the technique is the same as in “Tambourine”, only the partners’ hands move crosswise (right with right and vice versa).

Types of step

Calm walking (walk) - the step begins with the toe of the extended right (left) leg, the toe is turned to the side. The amplitude and length of the step are small. Hand movement is arbitrary (can be in any position).

Step on the entire foot (stomping) - performed with very little forward movement: the knees are slightly bent, the body is straight, the legs are placed on the entire foot with a slight stomp, they are almost not lifted from the floor, but they are not shuffled either. The child moves as if “on wheels”; hands can be placed on the belt with fists.

Round dance step - this type of step is used in round dances. It differs from a simple step in its great smoothness and determination. Good posture and a raised head give the movement an aspirational character. The movement is associated with music of a leisurely, calm nature.

Added round dance step (without changing the supporting leg) - for “one” - a small step from the toe of the right (left) foot, for “two” - the toe of the other leg is placed against the heel of the supporting leg, etc.

Added round dance step (with alternate change of supporting leg) - rhythmic step pattern: 2 eighths, a quarter. On “one” - a long step from the toe of the right (left) foot, and on “and” - placing the left (right) toe to the heel of the supporting leg. On “two” - step in place from the right (left) foot. On the next beat, move from the other foot.

Quadrille step - on "one" - a step with the right (left) foot, on "two" - a light sliding kick with the heel of the other foot next to the supporting one. After the heel strike, the non-support leg extends forward, starting the next step. This step can be performed with a slight half-squat on the count of two.

High step - the leg does not move forward, but bends at the knee and rises up at an angle of 90 degrees. the toe is pulled down as far as possible or the foot is parallel to the floor) “iron”. This is a step in place or moving forward (in the form of a cockerel, horse).

Step with a stamp in place - for “one time” they take a step in place with the left foot next to the right; on “two” - stomping with the right foot in front of the left, without transferring the weight of the body to it. Then on “one” step in the place of the right one, placing it next to the left one; on “two” - left foot in front of right; everything repeats itself from the beginning. The emphasis constantly falls on the stomp (on “two”).

Variable step - performed for 2 measures in a two-beat measure or 1 measure in a four-beat measure. The step is based on a round dance step. On “one” and “two” of the 1st measure - long alternating steps from the toe of the right (left) foot. On “one” and “two” of the 2nd measure - three short alternating steps from the toe of the other foot. There is a pause on “and”. The next step begins with the toe of the left foot.

Side step - one step - to the right (left), one step - the left (right) foot is placed on the supporting leg. Toes together or apart, depending on the starting position (“narrow path” or main stance)

Side fall - one step - a side step from the toe of the right (left) foot, the knee bends (like a small squat). On “two” - the toe of the other leg is placed against the supporting heel from behind, at the same time the knee of the right (left) leg is straightened. The “falling” element can be performed in place at a “point” or with a rotation around its axis (“clock”).

• Step on toes:

A spring step is a “spring” with movement along the entire foot.

A sneaking step is a “spring” with advancement on the pads and low half-toes (the image of a doll, ballerina, etc.). The movement is performed only in the preparatory group.

Side step ("cross") - one step - step to the side from the right (left) foot. On “two” - the left (right) leg is placed crosswise in front of it.

A circular step back and forth (“pigtail”) is a round dance step, only the legs are placed not at an angle of 450 to the right or left, but crosswise in front of the right or left. When moving this step back, the left foot is placed behind the right and vice versa.

Mincing step (“floating”) is a smooth round dance step moving forward (backward) on the toes. When performing it, only the leg lifts are bent. Performed at an older age.

Jumping

• On one leg:

“Point” - starting position of the legs - basic stance, arms in any position. After the push, land at the same point, placing your foot first on the toe, then on the entire foot. The other leg (non-supporting) is bent at the knee and laid back. Change the supporting leg.

“Clock” - the technique is the same, only the jump is performed with a rotation around its axis. The supporting leg rotates evenly (like a clock hand) in a circle. For 8 jumps, the child must make a full rotation - 360 degrees.

On “one, two” - left shoulder forward,

On “three, four” - with your back,

At “five, six” - with the right shoulder,

At “seven, eight” - with your face.

“Ladder” - the technique is the same as in the “point”, but moving forward or backward by a certain number of jumps (ladder steps).

“Fence” - a side jump to the right (on the right) or to the left (on the left leg). There are as many jumps as there are boards in the fence.

“Sun” - the technique is the same as in the “point”, only moving along a circle of any diameter (“around the sun”).

• On two legs:

“Jump” - alternately jumping on the right and left legs.

The amplitude of the jump depends on the nature of the music. It can be performed in place, moving forward or backward, as well as rotating around its axis (“clockwise”).

“Jumping with kicking the legs back” - “one time” - a “point” jump with the supporting leg, at the same time the non-supporting leg bends at the knee and is thrown back, heel up. The non-support leg can be supported by

weight or placed on the back of the toe. To “two” – change of supporting leg.

“Funny legs” (jumps with legs thrown forward) - the right and left legs are often thrown forward alternately, as if boasting to the audience. The toe of the foot is pointed down towards the floor. Arms to the sides, palms facing forward with the inside.

“Rocking chair” - starting position - legs together. Then the right leg is brought forward a little and, as it were, pushes the left leg back, then it is brought forward again, and the left one returns to its place. The movement is repeated continuously.

“Scissors” - for “one” - push, spread your legs to the sides and land in the “Wide path” position. On “two” - push and cross your legs at the “point” in front (right foot in front of the left and vice versa when repeating).

“Cross” - on “one” - pushing and crossing the legs at the “point” (right leg in front), on “two” - the same thing, only the left leg is in front.

“Broom” is the same as “rocking chair”, only with a change of legs.

“Side gallop” is the same as a side step, only on a jump.

“Gallop forward” - the technique is the same, only moving forward, not to the side. At “one” - a push and the right (left) leg is carried forward, landing from the toe. The toe of the other foot is placed behind the heel of the supporting leg. On “two” - repetition.

“Rope” - one time - jump - “point” on the left (right) leg, at the same time the other leg is placed behind and the toe is brought forward with a sliding movement on the floor. On “two” - everything is repeated on the right (left) leg. This jump can be performed either in place or moving forward.

Movements

Junior group. Dancing with leaves

Kids with leaves. Dance for children of primary preschool age to the composition “Oak leaves, maple leaves.” Performed by Lyayla Khismatullina.

Swing over me, My golden leaf. Oak leaves, maple leaves.

We are sitting behind a leaf, looking from behind a leaf. Oak leaves, maple leaves.

Suddenly a cheerful breeze wants to tear out my leaf. Oak leaves, maple leaves.

We won’t give you the leaflet, it will be useful to us ourselves. Oak leaves, maple leaves!

Dancing “Repeat after me” for children to music

Morning exercises are useful for any age. Such gymnastics improves health, increases performance and gives a boost of energy for the whole day.

Morning dance-game for children from one year old

You can practice game rhythms with children as young as one year old. After all, all children start dancing from a very early age. When they hear the music, they stomp their feet, spin and twirl to the beat. And to further captivate your child with an interesting game, just show him some simple movements and play “Repeat after me” together.

Children's dance games

However, such gymnastics has its own characteristics.

  • The best music for little ones is a living voice. After all, a child under three years of age is practically unable to assimilate many sounds at the same time. Therefore, the teacher should hum songs for games himself.
  • When working with children, do not forget that children perceive information more effectively with the help of games and rhymes. Their use develops hearing, attention, speech memory and speed of reactions.
  • Exercises for children over one year old should not be too active. After all, not everyone can even walk yet. The best option is simple repetitions with clear words and actions.
  • The names of the exercises should also be interesting and involve the baby.
  • The purpose of the classes is to lure the child into the game. Such training improves spatial orientation and develops thinking.

Note! It is very important for children to spend as much time as possible with their parents and hear their voice. Therefore, at an early age, games should be played by mom and dad.

Charging for the little ones

After a year, children's motor abilities become more confident. From this age, you need to involve your child in active games. It is enough to repeat dances for children for 10-15 minutes daily.

Dancing for two years old

At 2 years old, children can already walk, and their interest in the world around them grows. They are constantly moving and cannot sit still. Repeat dances for children help to cope with excessive activity.

Their play form engages the child, and the exercises themselves develop discipline and strengthen muscles. It is important to show the movements on yourself, communicate with the baby and encourage success.

If the gymnastics was so active that the child cannot calm down, then you need to give him more time. Only when the child gets tired can you end the game. Otherwise, a quarrel will only take away the desire for further activities and leave negative memories.

Dance exercise for children over three

After three years, children's physical skills change significantly. A developing organism constantly requires movement. Therefore, it is imperative to direct energy in the right direction.

Children dance and exercise

Children's repeat dances fill you with energy, develop a sense of tact and motor abilities. Children over 3 can already perform individual movements and simple dance sequences.

Environmental education classes for preschoolers

Important! The music you choose should be energetic, cheerful, with simple words and motivating actions. For example, “dance of the little ducklings.” Variants of songs with acceleration are also good. First, the child trains movements at a slow pace, and then faster and faster. This is great for developing reactions.

The benefits of exercise will not be long in coming. Classes improve mood, endurance of the body, form discipline and develop the child’s confidence in himself and his talents.

If you conduct group dance classes, the effect is doubly positive. Children learn cohesion and develop team spirit. Also, hyperactive guys calm their energy, while sedentary guys get involved in the process.

Note! Children of this age especially love the game form of activities. The teacher can dress up as the children's favorite character and involve them in the game.

New Year's repeaters

New Year's dances “Repeat after me” are suitable for children during matinees and holidays in elementary school. You can organize it as a flash mob. Place the children in a row and show simple movements to the music.

Another option is a full dance. Its rehearsal should begin no later than a month before the event. For the event, children will perfectly remember the rhythmic movements and surprise their parents with such a creative New Year gift.
