The key points of rhythm creation in children's music games are as follows:
1. The creation of movements should conform to the rhythm and melody of the music, and the rhythm movements should be designed according to the image expressed by the music.
2. The movements should not be too complicated, and should be as simple and regular as possible, mainly to train the imitation of a certain thing or to train the parts of the body, so as to facilitate children's memory. Highlighting the image of things in action design can better enable children to grasp them and deepen their understanding of things through rhythm.
3. When creating rhythm, we should grasp the age characteristics, physiological and psychological characteristics of children, and arrange a rhythm combination that is suitable for the children's age. In terms of movement design, attention should be paid to changes in movements according to the characteristics of children's age, gradually enriching dance movements and increasing the difficulty of movements.
Rhythm creation rules for various age groups:
Children in kindergarten classes are young and have weak leg strength. Their balance, self-control, and rhythm are poor, but they can’t bounce well. Children have better strength, so try to perform a single movement of the upper limbs or lower limbs. When creating upper limb movements, because children are active, try to sit on the floor or a bench to perform upper limb movements. When creating lower limb movements, use both hands. For leg jumping movements, generally choose 2-4 movements to create.
Kindergarten middle class: When creating the composition, the music rhythm should be clear, the movements should be concise and vivid, and simple movements of the upper and lower body can be done. Generally, 5-8 movements are chosen for the composition.
Kindergarten class: You can slightly increase the range of movements according to changes in music rhythm and melody, and you can also add simple formation scheduling. Generally, we choose to create an edit based on 6-9 actions.
Grade 1-3 of primary school: Appropriately enrich dance vocabulary in music of different styles and rhythms, and be able to express different emotions in the melody of music, focusing on the beauty and standardization of movements.
Grades 4-6 of primary school: rich in rhythmic movements and diversified dance types. They can add changeable formations and arrangements, pay attention to the standardization and expressiveness of dance movements, and can be exposed to the dance characteristics of different countries and ethnic groups. .
