  2. It's not your fault
  3. Sometimes you have to try more than once
  4. Trying many times builds our strength and makes us resilient.

Just to be weird...

Different ways to say restroom in English:

  • Bathroom
  • WC (stands for Water Closet)
  • The "Head" (comes from boating, because the bathroom on a boat is down below in the front of the boat)
  • The "Loo" (mostly British people say that)
  • Washroom
  • Powder room
  • Latrine (this is for an outdoor place to go with no plumbing)
  • Porta-Potty
  • "Library" (because a lot of people read in there)

YOU Tell Us How to Move Our Bodies

Each person show everyone an exercise YOU like best.


Christmas In June

How about let's be crazy and sing a Christmas song in the summer time! Or NOT. Your choice. But sing something. Singing is really healthy.


Guess the Expression

We wear masks because of Covid-19. That can seem weird because we aren't used to it. It's also hard to tell how someone is feeling when they have a mask on. Let's see if we can tell what someone's expression is with a mask. 

  1. Each player can put on a mask, or cover their nose and mouth with their hands. 
  2. The group has to guess if they are smiling, frowning, growling, yawning, or laughing.
  3. The player removes their mask to reveal their expression. 

Listen to Spanish in Music

Disney's Frozen character sings about Summer in Spanish


Where's Waldo? At the beach!

**PRESENTER TIP! CTRL and the + sign make the image larger on screen. Then you can scroll to different areas of the image and search for that guy up close and personal. 

Use the Annotation Tools to cross out all the places he ISN'T until you find him. Or NOT. Your choice. Happy hunting.

These guys way OVER-ENUNCIATE
