Strong and weak beat

The students have been learning about strong and weak beats.  We practiced this concept by bouncing a ball on beat 1 and then holding for 8.  This shows the students what it sounds like and prepares them for the feel of an 8 count.  We have also been practicing this concept with the song C'est L'halloween

Here is a link to the song if they want to try it at home: C'est l'halloween
