Let's Move

A few weeks ago, our PE teacher updated the staff about the 'Let's Move Initiative.' The First Lady and Beyonce have teamed up to create a dance for students across the country to learn and perform-flash mob style. The purpose of the initiative is to get kids moving! It helps the students with coordination, gets them exercising, and helps them to develop a love for dance.

Yesterday, indoor recess was the result of a rainy afternoon, and I was contemplating what to have the kids do. A fellow teammate suggested that I let the kids practice the 'Let's Move' dance that they've been learning during their gym time. Great idea!

The kids were so excited, and I loved watching every second of it. It made my day! They urged me to do it with them. I promised I would participate once I learned it. I guess I better start practicing!
