Ballroom and Square Dancing...

All three grade levels are currently in their dance units. For our sixth and seventh grade students we are beginning our square dance unit. Students learn the basic moves in sixth grade and apply them to basic and moderate level square dances, while our seventh grade classes review the basics and then begin with moderate level and move into advanced square dances. Both 6th and 7th grade classes will also perform circle and line dances.

In eighth grade P.E. classes we are moving right along with our ballroom dancing unit. Each class has performed moves in the rumba, swing and cha-cha within the first week and a half. Today we will have a review day and our one fitness day of the week.

The ballroom dance will be held on Friday, December 17th in the afternoon. All parents are welcome to come and are allowed to bring your camera too! The PTO provides snacks and refreshments for the kids at the dance.
