STEADY BEAT
Photo
"A STEADY BEAT is an unchanging continuous pulse. This is different from the Rhythm Patterns of a specific song. The ability to keep a steady beat is developed over time, and can be started with very young children. Such skills are not that difficult to learn for persons of any age, but developing a sufficient level of competence requires support from knowledgeable adults as guides, and plenty of opportunities for practice.
A well developed steady beat is required for walking, talking, using a pair of scissors and bouncing a ball, as well as many other abilities. Feeling and moving to steady beat develops a sense of time and the ability to organize and coordinate movements within time." -Debbie Mondale
