Morning Class Pics (Dancing Videos Below!!)

Dance Videos!

I almost didnt post these videos when I realized that I was singing in them.... oh well. If you are wondering why some children are sitting while others are dancing, we split up the class into who wanted to do which dance and then those who didn't want to do a certain dance, just sat and watched. Enjoy!

Cotton-Eye Joe: We definitely need to work on timing.... and maybe next time we can learn the difference between right and left! :)

Macarena: We could do this one for hours!

Hokey Pokey: So. Much. Fun!

I Like to Move It: .... and this is where the batteries started failing. Sorry I couldn't get more of everyone dancing. I was really bummed because everyone was having so much fun!

New Songs Added!

Enjoy dancing to these new songs with your kids at home! We are having so much fun dancing in the afternoon. Maybe one of these days we will post a video of our dances....

Thursdays in the Summer

I am so excited for Thursday afternoons! Dancing is one of my favorite things to do. It is so much fun!

Bugs, Bugs, Bugs

These past few weeks, our class has been learning all about insects! We even got to go look for bugs in the field behind our school. Who knew there could be so many bugs there?! Enjoy the pictures (Sorry, they are in backwards order!).



We have so much fun! :)
