Dancing makes us think, it is creative and it is a great workout for the body as well. During the month of January, primary students will be learning square and fold dances and learning how to jump rope. Third graders will be playing some cooperative games. Fourth and fifth graders will be learning basketball skills of dribbling, passing and shooting. A variety of lead up games will be played such as Dribble Tag, Snatch Ball and Monster Ball.
Siblings are welcome as well.
We hope to see you there. After a restful and much needed winter break, the musicians here at BES are ready to begin new activities in the classroom as well as preparing for the spring concert. As the second half of the year begins, each grade will be participating in activities which will bring out every student's musical creativity. The second graders will be learning more about rhythms and melodies in order to begin small compositions. The fourth graders will soon be playing the recorder in their music classes ultimately improvising melodies over bass lines which we learned earlier in the year.
