LINE DANCE- THIS IS THE NEXT UNIT
On Tuesday of next week we will be starting Line Dance. All 6th grade classes will be doing Line Dance together. This is a super fun unit. The hardest part of this unit is learning all the steps to all the dances. You are in luck, I have made instructional videos for each of the dances and they are pretty easy to follow. I HIGHLY recommend that you watch and practice these dances. Please practice these with a parent or family member. It is easier to learn them with someone else.
To check out the Line Dance page, click HERE. There is a lot of good information, even links to to iTunes where you can buy the songs to practice to the music.
