Gym:
Today Ms. V has something very special for you to do for PE! I have created my very own workout video on YouTube for all of you to follow along with. Make sure you have your water bottle, maybe a yoga mat or blanket to kneel on for certain exercises. You can repeat this workout as many times as you'd like, but make sure you drink lots of water to replenish your body! 

We will be working on our cardio, leg muscles, arm muscles and our core (tummy) muscles. 
Are you ready!?!?

Music:
I loved seeing the pictures of the musical instruments that you made at home!  Today for music class we will begin by:
1. Clapping Food Rhythms.  For example, clap "ta, ta" and say "Ice cream" and clap,"ta, titi" and say "hamburger." The last row of rhythms clap "tika tika ti ti" and say "pepperoni pizza". Next class I will send you a video where you can watch me clap these rhythms and you can clap with me!
2. Practice singing along to your favourite "Frozen 2" songs or "Disney" songs, or a song of your choice with the new instrument that you made.  Have fun keeping in time to the music.
3. With chalk go outside and draw some of the following rhythms on the sidewalk or driveway.  Have fun! If you do not have chalk you can practice drawing your rhythms on paper with crayon or marker, or make your music notes with playdough.

Next music class you will be able to sing along to my you tube video for you to sing some of your favorite songs with me at home!
