!?!? A New Student !?!?

Today we had an interesting visitor join our gym class "named" Katy.  Talk about a teachable moment!  The students were introduced to a katydid that we found in the gym.  We discussed some attributes, including the natural camouflage feature of its body.

We were able to let "her" go.  The next time, I hope that our class will not scream!

Today we learned a new game in gym class called "Treasure Hunt".  Check out the photos and ask your child about it!

Healthy Snacks Please!

I have been reminding the students daily that they should be having healthy snacks for the morning.  The snack that is provided each day is always fruit or vegetables.  Other great ideas are yogurt, cheese and crackers, Goldfish crackers, healthy granola bars, etc.  Chocolate, cookies, brownies, chips, etc, would not fall into this category.  Thanks in advance!
