Movement Break



My teacher friend introduced me to the great sights on You-Tube, Kids Dance 2.   It is perfect for all the restless times or transitions in a day.  I put it up on the smart board and the kids start dancing!
They love the music and the movement.  You need to preview the song and dance you want to use.
The kids have ideas of what they'd want, but if you are prepared with your list all goes well.  One of the favorites in kindergarten is You're a Gummy Bear.   It is so funny to watch those little kiddos show their moves.


This is a great transition break. It really depends on your kids and the restlessness.  At the end of the year I used this several times!  The videos are about 3 minutes long and by the time they finish dancing a couple of videos they are ready to work.
