Dancing our Hearts Strong

 

 


Eating healthy and EXERCISING are the keys to a healthy heart, mind and body. In the Food is Elementary classes, we followed our lessons on healthy choices with fats and oils with healthy choices about moving our body.

With a soundtrack from around the globe, we shook and shimmied and got our heart rates up up up. In between songs we took deep breaths and learned a little about the location, language and people of the songs.

As a cool-down activity, children drew pictures as they listened to some slow-tempo tunes.

Many kids explored different dance moves and had a great time! Others expressed themselves more readily with a marker in hand.

Next week we’ll be exploring whole grains…another key to a healthy heart. Wunderbar!
