Today students were encouraged to walk to school or ride their bikes or scooters as we finished off our Health Week. Lots of students and their parents participated! The kids had fun running through the obstacle course, too, and the rain held off just perfectly! Students also wore exercise or sport clothing to remind them to be healthy.
Mustangs wore their pajamas on Tuesday to promote healthy sleep habits.
Kindergarten students in Mrs. Kadish's class had a lot of fun learning their ABCs. On Friday they played games that included matching, writing, and finding letters of the alphabet.
Students at Meadow Brook kicked off Health Week by taking the Veg Pledge. They promised to eat at least one fruit or vegetable each day this week.
During the first week of school Mrs. Simpson's class did team building activities to build community in their classroom. That team building has payed off! We have been working so well together in the classroom and on the playground. Together everyone achieves more!
Mrs. Tew brought in 3 caterpillars and milkweed into Miss Sheets’ class the first week of school. The caterpillars ate, and ate. Soon, they climbed to the top of the cage and hung on by silk and started to make their cocoons. It took ten days for them to become butterflies. Two of the butterflies were girls and one was a boy. One of the girl butterflies was a Queen butterfly and the rest were Monarchs. The queen butterfly has a darker color than the monarch butterflies and more white spots. Did you know that?
