After warming up, Ms. Conley wants you to make a hopscotch inside or outside. Be creative: you can use chalk, sticks, tape, etc. Find a rock or other small item to toss.
Here is a video to help you with hopscotch if you need it.

Hello Little Tigers! Spring Break starts after school today! So, remember work first than play.
Note to parents: don't stress over music and PE activities. Ms. Conley and I give these activities as brain breaks and family fun activities. Make family memories during this crazy time!
For today's music classes, you can check out the shaker videos again and use the shaker you made earlier this week. I loved seeing the shakers you made!
K-1 kiddos: don't forget your Quaver accounts. I have a fun Disco lesson available for family fun time!
Since break starts soon: let's dance out the end of another week of home schooling!
We have 4 days and then you are on Spring Break! If we were at school, we would be using my Easter egg shakers this week and doing lots of fun stuff with them.
So, I have a challenge for you this week!
Challenge: Make a homemade shaker with beautiful stuff from around your home!
Here are tips to help you out:
1. First, you must find a container. (Easter eggs, empty water bottle, or empty container)
2. Second, find something to put inside your shaker. (rice, beans, beads, dry food....)
3. Be creative and have fun!
4. Share your shaker with Mrs. Carroll on your class page!
5. Enjoy the following shaker videos!
**I Know Chicken by Laurie Berkner (echo sing with her and play your shaker when she tells you too!) I love this song!!!!
Here is one of my favorites (I will miss singing it with you guys)
Ideas: Sing along and play your shaker. You could also stand and hop with your shaker on the A part. Freeze on the B part (He's got jelly beans for Tommy.....)
The spring weather has been amazing lately! Hopefully you've been in your yard playing some!
Play your shaker with Vivaldi's music (Steady beat on the A part)
Here is a fun song to play your shaker and sing along!
Enjoy your shaker fun! Have a great week and remember to be safe! Mrs. Carroll misses all of you a bunch!!
For those that have PE, before you go outside and enjoy the spring weather: Enjoy this fun video that just happens to be one of Ms. Conley's favorites.
Have a great weekend!
Next week, we will be making homemade shakers and doing some of the shaker activities we would have done in music class before spring break! So be looking around your house for items you could use to make a shaker.
Examples: empty bottles/containers, Easter eggs, etc.
