Theme: Learn Along Bingo: Get Moving
Welcome to Learn Along Bingo with PBS Kids! There are many ways that people can move their bodies. This week children can practice controlling their bodies and grow gross motor skills.
Two age level areas are available – PreK-K and Grades 1-2. 
PreK-K
A variety of activities in this week’s booklet combine large body movement with letters, numbers and music. Did you make the number cube and follow the exercises? How many did you do?


       Sesame Street Dancing Chickens
It's craft and story time with this Sesame Street activity. Combine simple hand-drawn chicken puppets with your own dance routine. Following that, create a story using your chicken puppets.


Grades 1-2
Explore these suggestions to learn how you can move your body with exercise and dance. Did you try the measuring activity from Cyberchase? Is your foot the same length as your forearm? How many foot lengths is your body height from your feet to the top of your head?
