We took advantage of the warm weather and dry fields and ran the mile, 1/2 mile for 3rd grade. Of course, some students love it and others find the challenge way too great. Students really feel a great sense of accomplishment when completed. I'm so very proud of them.
Recreational games is complete and written tests were handed back.
Intramural hockey for 3rd and 5/6th grade students is well underway. We have a great group of students playing and many really close games.
Stay active, stay healthy.

We actually made it outdoors a few days this past week. It felt excellent. If the weather stays warm enough, we have great plans for our remaining weeks at school - track and field, fitness tests(includes running the mile) and softball. Still in the works for indoors is our conclusion of the recreational games unit, and our indoor version of what we'd rather be doing outdoors.
Stay active, stay healthy.

Wow. The time certainly has been flying by. Our Spring Break came and was over before I can imagine. Now that we're back at school, we've been playing recreational games. It's great because there are so many new things to introduce to the students. We change activities every few days and are still going strong. Hopefully the weather will warm up soon and we'll be able to alternate by having some outdoor activites as well.
Stay active, stay healthy.
