Egyptian Amulets


3rd grade created amulets inspired by ancient Egyptian amulets found in Pharoah Tutenkamen's tomb.

Kindergarten Skating Away in Music

Kindergartners learned a game in music. They sang a song while pretending to be skaters.
They also have been working on keeping a steady beat to many speeds of music. 

Folk Dancing in Music

3rd and 4th graders had the chance to learn a folk dance in their classes. Folk dances not only help with keeping beat, but also sequencing a pattern and listening to changes in music. They loved learning these dances.
