Day 3

Hi First Grade!
Today I have a fun activity for you all. Today we are going to be Heroes in Training! Below I have attached a presentation called Hero in Training. What you are going to do is pick two superheroes and do their superhero workouts. When you go to the presentation the second slide will have a TON of Lego superheros. You will pick one, do their exercises, and then go back to the superhero slide. Then you will pick one more superhero and do the same thing. Be patient, sometimes it takes a minute or two for the Lego Superheros to load!

Hero in Training

Once you are all done head over to Flipgrid and let me know the superheroes you chose to be and how you liked it!
