We learn about protecting ourselves from the sun while dancing and singing to the “Sun Screen Song”. Then it’s time to head off to the beach for a swim but when we get there we need some help to work out where to swim. To help us learn we dance and sing to a song named ”Between the Flags” while doing some coll dance moves with a red and yellow lifesavers flag. Next we meet Dolly the Dolphin who invites to an under the sea party with all of her ocean friends.  We meet a sea horse, a starfish, and even a shark, just name a few.

One things for sure about the Under the Sea class – It’s awesome!!
