Kindergarten - 2nd Grade

Learn to perform a new version of the simple folk dance Seven Jumps with Mrs. Hiltz by watching the video below.  Invite the people in your house to dance with you!  Then, send me a picture or a FlipGrid video (1st & 2nd grade only) of your favorite statue pose you did during this dance.



3rd & 4th Grade
Learn Los Machetes, a folk dance from Mexico.  To perform this folk dance, you will need two rhythm sticks.  Be creative with your sticks - use drumsticks, wooden spoons, pencils, sticks from outside...  Follow the directions in the video to learn the folk dance.


For your assignment, you have two options:
Option 1: Learn the moves to Los Machetes by following the video above.  Then, send me a video of yourself performing the motions.  Make sure you learn section C well before recording your video!
Option 2: Watch the clip below of children in Mexico performing the same folk dance.  Send me an email or FlipGrid video telling me 2 similarities and 2 differences between the way they performed the dance and the way we performed it.
