We Are Dancers!

We have been doing some great dancing in our classroom! Using the GoNoodle app and the BrightLink^® projector in our classroom, generously donated by our PAC a few years ago, we have been including dance/movement in our daily physical activity. Students were inspired by Mrs. Glavas/Ms. Rudolph’s class who went up to dance at our school assembly. We will be going up as well to challenge the rest of the school! Here is a short clip of them dancing to their favorite dance song, How Long.

Tennis

What a fun sport! Students had fun learning with our instructor, Marcus.

Yoga for Health and Well-Being

For most kids, this was their first exposure to yoga. Our instructor, Michelle, focused on breathing exercises and a variety of stretches/poses (E.g. cat, cow, warrior). Yoga helps kids with focus/concentration, and boosts self-esteem. Learning about proper breathing techniques can help with tackling anxiety. I also liked that gratitude seems to be another key focus in the practice of yoga. And of course, the children get to experience play without the worry of making mistakes.
