Lesson 3: Week of 5.11 - 5.15

Lesson 3 Activities: 5.11 - 5.15

 

Song of the Day 

This week's song of the day is "Better When I'm Dancing". This pop song was created for the recent "Peanuts" movie and throughout the video you'll see various characters such as Snoopy and Charlie Brown dancing with the singer, Meghan Trainor. This song is meant to lift your spirits and get you up and dancing!

After watching the video, share what you thought with a family member or you can reply to this discussion thread to share with our class what you think of the song and why. Be sure to start your opinion with "I like the song because..." or "I don't like the song because...." 

 

Sing and Move 

Let's sing along with our folk song "Chicken on the Fencepost". Stay tuned until the end for the extra assignment and new movements!

Get up and Move!

Follow along with the movements to the song "Eastside". This is one we have done before in class so it should be moderately familiar.
