ClassX Video Lessons Grade Kindergarten ‘Let’s Move’ with Ms. Lauren | Day 4 | Pre-K Learning and Fun
Hello, friends! Welcome to our special classroom where we have lots of fun learning new things. Today, we’re going to talk about moving our bodies and staying healthy. Are you ready? Let’s go!
Today, we have a story from Professor Squirrel about two brothers, Fred and Ned. Fred feels great because he eats healthy food, drinks water, and exercises. But Ned doesn’t feel so good. A fairy godcoach helps Ned learn to make healthy choices, like eating fruits and drinking water. Soon, Ned feels just as good as Fred!
Did you know dancing is a fun way to exercise? Dancing makes our bodies strong and healthy. In Miami, lots of people danced together in a big conga line. How fun is that?
When we dance, we listen to the rhythm of the music. Rhythm is like a pattern that repeats. Let’s clap a rhythm together: clap, clap, pause, clap! Can you do it?
Mr. Dan loves music and rhythm. He says rhythm is like the beat of a drum or a fun dance. Let’s clap some rhythms with Mr. Dan and make music together!
We talked to Miss Diana, a dancer who teaches different styles. Dancing helps us balance, get stronger, and express ourselves. And guess what? Anyone can dance!
Let’s try some dances from the past, like ’90s hip hop. Dance your favorite dance and have fun moving your body!
After dancing, it’s good to cool down. Let’s take a few deep breaths together. Breathe in… and out. Great job!
Now, let’s visit Professor Squirrel and Nutley to learn about gravity. Gravity is what keeps us on the ground. Isn’t that cool?
Today, we learned about healthy habits and moving our bodies. Dancing is a great way to exercise and have fun. Maybe you can dance to your favorite music later!
We have some fun puzzles, games, and activities for you to enjoy. We hope you have a great time playing them!
It’s time to say goodbye, but we can’t wait to see you again tomorrow. Remember, the more you learn, the more fun you’ll have!
Healthy Choices Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find items that help us stay healthy. Look for fruits, vegetables, water bottles, or anything that reminds you of exercise, like a jump rope or a ball. Share what you find with your friends and talk about how each item helps us feel good, just like Fred and Ned learned!
Rhythm and Dance Circle: Gather in a circle with your friends and take turns creating a simple rhythm by clapping or tapping your feet. Everyone else in the circle will try to copy the rhythm. After a few rounds, put on some music and dance together, using the rhythms you created. Notice how the rhythm helps guide your dance moves, just like Mr. Dan taught us!
Gravity Experiment: With the help of a grown-up, find a few small objects like a feather, a ball, and a piece of paper. Drop them from the same height and observe how gravity pulls them to the ground. Talk about what you see. Which objects fall faster or slower? Why do you think that happens? Remember, gravity is what keeps us on the ground, just like Professor Squirrel and Nutley explained!
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Hi everyone! Welcome to the ABC Mouse classroom. The class is just about to start, so let’s go!
Hello and welcome back! I’m so glad to see you. I hope you’re having a great Thursday. We have a really fun day ahead with Professor Squirrel, Nutley, and an interview with a dance teacher, Miss Mel. This week, we’ve been talking about moving our bodies. It’s important to take care of ourselves by eating right, getting enough sleep, and exercising. Isn’t that right, everyone? Yes, it sure is!
One way to stay healthy and strong is by exercising different parts of our bodies. Here’s Professor Squirrel with a video about two brothers. One brother knows a lot about staying healthy, and the other, not so much. Let’s watch!
It’s story time with me, Professor Squirrel. Today’s story is about making healthy choices with brothers Fred and Ned. There were once two brothers named Fred and Ned. They were identical in every way except for one: the way each of them felt most days. Fred always felt great! He got plenty of rest, drank lots of water, and exercised regularly. Because of that, Fred was healthy.
But while Fred was doing this, Ned was not feeling well. Then one day, a fairy godcoach appeared to help him. She explained that sometimes feeling better can be as simple as making different choices. For example, when you’re hungry, do you choose a healthy snack like a banana or an apple, or do you choose something sugary? Choosing the right food is one way to stay healthy.
Ned learned that making healthy choices, like drinking water instead of soda and getting exercise, would help him feel better. Soon, Ned was just as healthy as Fred!
Did you like that video? Yes! I was happy that Ned learned how to make healthy choices. It’s easy to add healthy choices throughout your day, like dancing while cleaning. Dancing is a great exercise because it gets your whole body moving. Anyone can dance, and there are many different ways to do it!
Now, let’s check out a fun fact about dancing! Did you know that in Miami, thousands of people gathered to set the world record for the largest conga line with almost 120,000 people? That’s a huge party!
When we dance, we listen to the rhythm of the music. Rhythm is a pattern of sounds that repeats. Let’s try to create some rhythms together! I’ll clap a rhythm, and you can repeat it after me.
Now it’s time for Mr. Dan to teach us more about music and rhythms. Hi everyone! Today we’re going to talk about rhythm. When I say rhythm, I think of drums, dancing, and my favorite instrument, the bass. The steady beat is regular, but the rhythm can change. Let’s clap some rhythms together!
Now, let’s put together our rhythm and steady beat. Just follow me! Great job! We just made music together!
I hope you have a great rest of your day. Goodbye!
Thanks, Mr. Dan! Each rhythm made me want to dance in a different way. When we dance, we use our muscles to push and pull different parts of our bodies.
Hi everyone, it’s Miss Mel! Guess what? We got to interview a professional dancer. Let’s see what she had to say!
Hello! Thank you for talking to me about being a dancer, Miss Diana. What types of dances do you teach? I teach contemporary dance, which mixes different styles together. Dancing helps your body because you learn how to balance, become stronger, and express yourself.
Can anyone dance? Yes! Anyone can dance, no matter your age or where you live.
Thanks for sharing, Miss Diana! Dancing sounds like a great job. Now, let’s move it with some dances from the past!
Are you ready to dance? Let’s travel back in time and bring back some ’90s hip hop!
Now, dance your favorite dance from today!
Wow, you sure know how to move it! After dancing or any exercise, it’s always a good idea to cool down. Let’s do a few deep breaths together.
Okay, it’s time to visit Professor Squirrel and Nutley, where they’ll be talking about gravity.
Today, we learned a lot about healthy habits and moving our bodies. I had such a great time with all of you! Miss Lauren is almost back to wrap things up and share some activities with you.
Thank you, Miss Mel! What a great day we had! We learned that dancing is a great way to exercise. When you dance, you use many different muscles, making your whole body strong and healthy.
Maybe after you finish the playlist, you can put on some music later and move your body. Does that sound fun? Yes!
We’ve picked out some fun puzzles, games, and activities for you to play right after this. We hope you enjoy them! It’s time to say goodbye, but we look forward to seeing you again tomorrow. Remember, the more you learn, the more you’ll love learning!
