Julia Priest Of Music Together Newton has this to say:

Julia Priest is   Director of     Music Together of Newton , an early-childhood music education program based in Newton, Massachusetts. A graduate of Yale, Boston University and Massachusetts General Hospital’s Institute of Health Professions, Priest specializes in using eurhythmics as well as the Alexander Technique to teach music and performance skills to children. She participates in musical activities in churches and synagogues, and teaches music at elementary and preschools, in and around Boston.

Julia has just begun using the octaband, and wrote to say: "Verrry successful today in preschools a capella with Pop Goes the Weasel. Seated, bouncing it on the A melody and swaying on the B melody; standing, revolving/skipping on the A melody and swaying again on B. Of course Pop! was tons of fun and eventually built into all jumping at once."

Thanks to Julia for her feedback and her ideas.

Thanks to Julia, Carol Mersky, Principal of Temple Emanuel Preschool, the children and parents of this preschool class for their willingness to have pictures taken.
