This rousing Texas play-party song can be played as a hand-clapping game with double circle of partners or a partner-swinging dance and is great for teaching sixteenth notes.

This is a fun, though challenging double-line dance to do with older students.  It's also great for preparing and presenting the eighth-quarter-eighth (or "syncopa") rhythm.
