Take Me Down to the Second Line - Workshop Three - "When the Saints go Marching In” (Math Foundations)

Let’s go marching in a second line band or dancing in a second line parade! One-to-one number correspondence, or understanding that the word “one” is directly connected to one step or one march, is an important foundation in math. What better way to explore it than with marching in a band or “second lining”? Sing and count along as we play in everyone’s anticipated Sunday ritual, the second line.
