October 9th, 2018

Our day in our words..........

- In gym we had Sound Kreations lead the class.  We learned some of the elements of hip-hop dance.
- At the end of the day we had inquiry.   We continued to work on Slogans and posters.
- This morning we did literacy and continued our Japan letters.
- In daily 5 we worked on our writing stamina.   We used "magic words".  
- Ignite was first thing this morning.   One choice was music.
- In math we worked in our groups.


Reminders......

Beat Street (K-12)
We’ve combined Hip‐Hop, Stomp and Dub‐Step (Animation) dance styles to create an Urban dance experience that will have your whole school buzzing.
We explore the groove of Hip‐Hop, the sounds of Stomp and the electronic influences of Dub‐ Step!
Students will learn to balance the flow of robotic dance moves with the powerful precision of steppin’, while also building upon foundational hip-hop styles.
We’ll look at the influences London, LA and West Africa have had on these modern dance styles and learn to integrate the original steps of dance with the new expressions we’ve all come to love!
This voyage of kinesthetic expression is highly interactive, entirely approachable, and fun, fun, FUN!
