I hope everyone had a great weekend! Since we are all learning how to use SeeSaw today, I thought it would be a good idea to relax and take some time for ourselves today. We will be doing Yoga today to relax our bodies and minds, focus on our breathing and be mindful with ourselves. You may choose to do one of the following activities:
  
Yoga in the Hive

Cosmic Kids Yoga – Kickapoo the Kangaroo

HOMEWORK: Think of an activity that you would like to master while learning from home. It must be something involving physical fitness. We will work on these goals throughout the next couple of weeks. I will be asking for responses throughout the week.
Examples:
  • Dribble a soccer ball
  • Jump rope
  • Do a cartwheel
  • Balance on one foot for 30 seconds

Have a great day!! J
