Park Terrace was fortunate enough to have a residency with the Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company during October. Professional dancers worked with our second graders to learn about dance and movement. The photos below show some highlights from the performance they gave to the school last week. On November 1st, the dance company returned to present a professional dance performance which incorporated number concepts like odd and even, addition, subtraction and probability. The photos below show some highlights from their performance.
🚨Congrats to our GESD spotlights for November 🚨
