If the child would like to do the dance at home this is the link for it.

Differentiated Instructional Support: Describe how instruction can be differentiated (changed or altered) to meet the
needs of gifted or accelerated students: For the one’s that maybe accelerated we could go into details and talk about
what each part of those body parts that are being talked about in the song does for them.
Discuss additional activities you could do to meet the needs of students who might be struggling with the material:
Some children might think it may be a little too loud or too much going on say I could also create flash cards for the
children to help them label each part of their body during the song while it plays for the other children

Vocabulary: Head, Arm, Foot, Neck, Toes, Back, Freeze.

For teachers Smart Board, YouTube, and Area big enough for children to move around.
