These are the Rhythm and Moves physical education lessons for Preschool.  The concept or skill should remain the focus for the week.  If you see your children more than once per week there are additional lessons or “Part 3” activities that you can use to reinforce the concept.  Most of the concepts can be used across all three disciplines of movement; Educational Dance, Educational Games and Educational Gymnastics.
