MUSIC AND MOVEMENT RESOURCE BOOKLET K-2 Compiled By Evelyn D. Bozeman
This booklet has been formulated as a ready to use resource guide for all who use music in their primary physical education programs. It has also been formulated for all teachers who have wanted to use music but were afraid to try it. These are tried and tested musical activities that were sent to me by physical education teachers from The USPE- List. I would like to thank all who responded to the call , and have shared with the list , your favorite movement activities set to music. If you have any questions, please contact the teacher who submitted the musical activity.

4. I wish I could tell everyone where to get a tape I have called "KID MIX" its all the types of music kids like. We use it for stations, running, jumping rope and anything else I can think of. I bought it about 5 years ago at national PE convention in New Orleans. Havent seen it since. Its music with a beat that kids like, its continuous, so you can easily use it for station work. ( check with Bunny on this one)

5. There is another tape that I have titled "MICKEY UNRAPPED" I use this tape a lot also. The kids love it. Even the 5th graders. It is full of popular type songs but the words have been changed. Mickey, Minnie and the whole gang sing the songs. ( again check with Bunny on this one also)
