Dear Families,

We are having tons of fun in our teeny Mini Movers class on Tuesdays! It is such a treat to have such a little class, to get the chance to really give each child my individual attention in our activities. This group is so full of imagination, it makes my job all the more fun as we explore space, time, and our body's relationship to both! 

Every two weeks, we learn about a new body part, so you can always ask your dancer about the different terms they are learning to talk about themselves. We began the semester exploring the way our body moves, with different activities that asked the students to imagine themselves as different animals and elements too get in touch with the way they experience as a whole being. We are now moving into discovering the space around us—working with different floor patterns and movements in our classroom. 

We will continue to explore, and add in the layer of time—slow, medium, fast, and all the in-betweens. We play games every class, and this group is a huge fan of Fruit Salad! Each child gets to put a ‘fruit’ into the bowl, which comes with an accompanying movement that we all copy. The most popular fruit though? Gummy bears without a doubt!

Looking forward to continuing to explore with these kiddos!

Sincerely,
Ms. Sabina, Curated Care teacher
