It wasn't a great one... but you should've seen them afterwards! So many of them said it was their favorite part of their day. I also occasionally do a 'one minute dance party' as a reward, and when I dance along, they just love it.<br /><br />I think that's part of why I love teaching- I get to let my silly side out! :)<br /><br />Jenny<br /><a href="http://luckeyfrogslilypad.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Luckeyfrog's Lilypad</a>luckeyfroghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09338266098096236978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8562817105461401104.post-20961702226053535652012-04-28T11:07:28.654-04:002012-04-28T11:07:28.654-04:00Hey Ashley!

(though I must say, the one time I tried to be "fearless" and step out of my comfort zone and let my kids see me with "diffused" curly hair (which is generally my lazy-weekend style), instead of my normal straight hair, their comments were a little blunt... one girl asked if I had done my hair like that on purpose!! haha!!
