Dance in Your Classroom Tips!

Do you want to dance in your classroom? 

You’d better, like your life depends on it—because it does!

Scientists are looking closely at dance, because it engages both the intellect and the emotions, and so it’s been shown to boost your brain, and even stave off memory loss.

Of course, your 5-year-olds don’t care about that.  All they know is dancing is fun.
