P.E in the Wintertime

Submitted by megan.oropeza on

P.E. in the winter is so much fun. The Volleyball net comes out and we start to learn the sport. It is my favorite sport and I'm so excited to get the kids rolling on it.

   It is also my favorite time of year to teach the kids some basic yoga. It is fun to watch kids try to balance on one foot or try some movements that might never have done before. I follow this lesson with a short guided meditation with affirmations. Helping the kids release any stress they might have.

Christmas with the Crooks

Submitted by megan.oropeza on

During our Christmas Sing Along, a motley crew of loveablecrooks turned our school into a competition full of holiday hijinks. Divided into teams, Grinch & Max versus Harry & Marv, students played games and sang songs to earn points as teachers were challenged to chug eggnog and dual it out with candy canes to gift their points to their favorite team. Along with limbo lights and ugly sweaters, the festive frenzy of Christmas trivia was no match for the tiebreaker: a dance off between the teams!
