Assignment for April 14-17: Orange Belt OR----BRAIN BREAK!!!! Welcome back to online school after break! Music is an essential part of your mental, emotional, physical, and social well-being. During this difficult time, it is important that we can pull our resources for coping to help us manage stress. Your task this week is to watch this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZjsLK5vwNU then find your favorite song, pick something that helps you express how you are feeling right now, maybe happy, sad, anxious, scared, whatever it may be and dance to it. Crank up the music and DANCE IT OUT! ****OR you can complete your orange belt on flipgrid- it is up to you and what you would like to do, students will not be penalized for not completing a belt exam. This is an activity we do in school a lot at the end of a particularly hard class/ day at school. Sometimes when you feel stressed you just need to dance it out, sing along, be silly! :) Nothing to turn in this week, but I'm here for you if you need me! Assignment for April 6-10: Yellow belt!
