Getting Active
The Body Coach is a great online fitness coach and he is offering a daily PE class at 9 am Monday to Friday while schools are closed. If the time doesn’t suit, or you miss a day or they want to do a particular video again, he also has all previous episodes available from https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyCLoPd4VxBvQafyve889qVcPxYEjdSTl
In our class, we are also huge fans of GoNoodle. You can register for free at GoNoodle.com and have access to songs, workouts, mindfulness lessons, yoga and many more skill-building videos that teach them also about the world around them.
