L'Expédition de la Rythmobile
By the company Jeunesses Musicales Canada
Theme
Qui trouvera assez de carburant à haut indice rythmique?
Show summary
Dans ce concert théâtral, les percussionnistes créent des formules rythmiques avec des objets inusités : des ballons, des raquettes… et même des poubelles !
La Rythmobile, bolide hybride tout-terrain surpuissant, est malencontreusement tombée en panne sèche. Pour compliquer la situation, ce quatre-quatre d’une technologie sophistiquée ne peut se mouvoir qu’avec du carburant à très haut indice rythmique. Avant de perdre trop de places au classement du rallye, nos deux aventuriers se mettent à la recherche de ce précieux carburant : le rythme.

Why do children go on cultural outings?

School outings help to make learning meaningful by bringing pupils into direct contact with the natural or cultural environment.

They bring children face to face with reality, elicit astonishment and emotions, and offer new perspectives.

They also draw on children’s social, motor and cognitive skills.

They help children learn about living in a community and establishing relationships between adults and children who are different from those in the class.

Outings are not simply something “extra,” but provide a unique opportunity for personal and collective reflection that will be meaningful for students throughout their years at school.
Tips to enrich the experience
Steer away from the usual questions in order to share a moment with your child.

Let me guess
With your face and/or body, express without using words what you felt during the outing. Now it’s my turn to express without words what I was feeling during the day.

Sharing thoughts to have sweet dreams
Before we turn out the lights, tell me something from the show that you’d like to dream about. Now it’s my turn to share an image or something positive that I experienced today and that I’d also like to dream about.

If you were the person who created this show
If you were to recreate this show in your own way, how would you do it? Would you like to show it to me? If I were to act in it, what would you want me to do?
