Here We Go Up (Lycra)

A rhyme incorporating movement in space and learning key words in understanding movement.

FOCUS AREAS: [balance] [proprioception] [coordination] [active listening]

Source: Unknown.

One song, many ways:

• Without lycra: model the movements in a large circle standing up so children can try these movements on their own.
• With the stretchy cord: this rhyme can also be done with the large resistance band.
• Inner hearing: Can you keep the words in your head and do only the movements as a group?

Lyrics:

Here we go up, up, up,

Here we go down, down down.

Here we go forwards, here we go backwards,

Here we go around and around and around and around!
