Excerpt from Program of Studies for the Elementary Schools: Physical Education There are three approaches to rhythmics, the creative approach, the traditional approach and the realistic approach. In its purest sense the first approach would limit the teacher to beginning with original patterns and neglect traditional songs and dances. Unfortunately this has been misinterpreted to the point where children are always required to create something new. The traditional approach limits the teacher to traditional forms and prescribed patterns and entirely neglects the creative aspects. The realistic approach then, suggests a middle course. Pursuing this course the teacher encourages creative response and teaches traditional patterns in the form of dances and singing games. Neither should be neglected, but it is recommended that in the first three grades the emphasis be placed on the creative approach as it is during this period that the children's imaginations are most active.
