We are very excited to introduce a new program this year entitled Bal-A-Vis-X.
Bal-A-Vis-X stands for Balance-Auditory-Vision-Exercise.
Students will work on their skills in both music classes and physical education classes.
Here they work with bean bags and racket balls to develop their coordination and timing.
Once everyone can execute the drills, we add music in various genres and fluctuating tempos.
Here are samples of 5th graders collaborating.
Kindergarten was introduced to using Orff instruments this week.
They learned the names of many percussion instruments.
They learned to play patterns to line up with certain lyrics of the song.
During the interludes, they passed their instrument to the next person
until each student had a chance to play every instrument.
2nd grade learned a new song using hula hoops.
It is entitled "Jump in the circle."
Here they form groups of four as they follow the directions and add claps.
4th grade is up and moving.
Here they demonstrate dance moves to a song entitled "Let's get funky."
These songs are from The Learning Station
