Holiday Concert!

We really got in the elf spirit with our Holiday Concert song & dance called We Will Jingle! The Busy Bees have been working really hard to learn the song & dance, along with building up the courage to perform. So proud of all their hard work after lots of practice (even with all the bus cancellation days impacting the rehearsals)! Thank you for the cooperation with costume coordination to add to the final touches to make it all come together! We hope you enjoyed our performance and the whole South Perth Christmas concert! It really brings about a lot of holiday spirit (and the white stuff we have had so much of makes it even more traditional)! Even Christopher the Elf found a perfect spot to watch the performance!

Christmas Concert!

We really got in the reindeer spirit with our Christmas Concert song & dance called Blitzen's Boogie! The Busy Bees have been working really hard to learn the song & dance, along with building up the courage to perform! So proud of all their hard work after lots of practice (even with all the bus cancellation days impacting the rehearsals)! Thank you for the cooperation with costume coordination to add to the final touches to make it all come together! We hope you enjoyed our performance and the whole South Perth Christmas concert! It really brings about a lot of holiday spirit (even if the weather isn't)! Even Christopher the Elf found a perfect spot to watch the performance!

Virtual Christmas Concert

The Grade 1/2 Busy Bee class has been busily preparing for our virtual Christmas Concert the past couple of weeks with all the excitement of the holiday season. We have welcomed with our classroom elf, Christopher, who inspired our Christmas Concert 'I Want To Be An Elf' selection and many other classroom activities that have been elf themed. Please enjoy our Christmas Concert video...
   
Thank you to the families for your patience and cooperation with sending in our costumes! Hope you have enjoyed our video!

Happy Holidays from our class to you all!!

Moving & Grooving

We have been practicing two different Chicken Dances in our classroom and the gym. One dance is the traditional polka with the traditional choreography and the other was the Just Dance Chicken Dance on the game. We found many differences and similarities between the two dances. Here is what we found:

Similar
* The music sounded the almost the same.
* It is the same because they are both chicken dances.
* They are the same because they both are 2 minutes long.
* They both have the dancers pretending to fly.
* They both wiggled their bums down to a squat.

Different
* The music sounded a little with different sounds added into the Just Dance one.
* The traditional dance we skipped in a circle but in the video, we did windmills with our arms.
* In the traditional dance we did clapping, and the other one we did not.
* We didn't do the beaks to start in the video one.
* At the end they had their hands on their legs to finish.
* In the traditional one we went down and the other one they waved their arms.

We have had lots of fun learning some different dances. We also have learned the Bunny Hop...
