Test Stress Released through Teachers vs Students Bomardment game

Every student who aims to become a high-achiever will experience test stress. It’s an unavoidable part of student life that can be a tough. We remind our students, we can beat the test, beat the stress. Through the bombardment game we are able establish methods to reduce the pressures students feel during testing. The aerobic exercise from these fun bombardment games help our students to release anxiety and excess energy and, as a result reduce tension. In the end it was a fun activity for students and staff. Especially since students beat the teachers 3 games to none.

Working on Mind, Body and Spirit through Ballroom Dancing

4/6/2018

0 Comments

 
​Dancing Classrooms are back with ballroom dancing lessons for our 5th graders. Ballroom dancing helps to build social awareness in our students, so they not only learn how to dance; they also learn how to respect one another. The maturity necessary to dance together fosters respect, civility, teamwork, cooperation, confidence and a sense of joy, accomplishment and achievement. Through dancing, they learn valuable life skills and lessons of self-discovery, self-expression, and self-confidence. Their posture and confidence improves and awkwardness is replaced with physical grace & poise. Are you ready to DANCE!
