I've been struggling trying to find the perfect short celebration for the scoreboard game. It seems if I choose the famous one minute party - my kids go crazy. I'm not confident enough yet and haven't built up my reserve of questions for mind soccer. I don't have a lot of time to give towards this endeavor and coming up with a new idea daily was wearing on me.
Enter BABY SHARK.
This weekend, I stumbled across the Youtube video and thought this might just be the answer. On Monday, I told my kids that we would keep the same celebration for a week. That way, they know what to expect and I'm not trying to think of something new each day. Baby Shark is a camp song that builds on itself and has a catchy little tune with hand gestures. A perfect marriage to my WBT teaching.
If they win, I can turn on the video - stand in front of the class - do the gestures and giggle with them as even the toughest of kids begins to laugh while making Grandma Shark gestures. I couldn't help but smile Monday afternoon when kids were leaving singing the baby shark song.
And... did I mention our school theme this year is, "Diving into Learning?" Perfect!
Now ... what about next week?
Any ideas?
