Workshop/Seminar Description: |
Fingerplay Boot Camp is a three hour workout. Not workshop. Workout. We have three hours to learn ten new fingerplays, (how many have you learned in the past year?) sharpen our skills at adapting materials, and acquire the art of creating delightful action rhymes to use at circle, for transition, snack, - anytime! Sometimes we get a little stale, relying on the same rhymes we have for years.
Fingerplay Boot Camp will give you new rhymes, new enthusiasm for language arts, and a big dose of confidence in your ability to create and adapt material.
