Description

This is a fun movement activity that students can do in class OR via remote learning, such as Zoom calls. You can easily do this activity with some students learning within the classroom and others at home.

Either way, it’s a whole class activity and it’s a whole lot of FUN!

Students will use syllable recognition to create dance movements and they will love every minute of it. Perfect for any class, getting to know you activities or use throughout the school year. We also love it to help prepare a piece for school assembly performances
