In the ocean

May 10-15, 2020

Welcome back! I hope you have been having fun with all of our books. Well this book is going to be pretty special! I can't wait for you to see what we are going to do. First, let's sing our hello song.

Just click the speaker and sing along!

Today we are going to talk about things that live in the ocean. Can you name some things that live in the ocean?

Now that you named some things that live in the ocean, let's get up and dance. Sing and move along with Laurie Berkner, "Let's Go swimming."

Now we are going to listen to a song by the composer Camille St. Saens. He is from the country of France and he was asked by his students to write a really silly song so he came up with many songs and he called them "The Carnival Of The Animals." This song is called "Aquarium." Do you know what lives in an aquarium? Let's listen and see if we can figure it out!

Did you figure out what this song is about? Did you hear that the music went up higher and then it went down lower? Well now we are going to add a scarf or small blanket to this song. Go and see if you can find one of these so we can act out this song. When you are ready, just click on the video and we can do it together.

Now that we spent some time under the water in the ocean, maybe we should try something on the water. Do you have any ideas of something we can do on the water? We could swim, but we already did that earlier. What if we went surfing? Let's get our surfboards and get ready to surf!
