On an even better note, the equipment will be arriving this school year, so we will not have to wait until next year to use some of the fantastic new P.E. supplies!!!

Recently, Ms. Lin and I completed a Wanderlust event. It got me thinking about the scholars and that I hope they are having healthy, stress-free fun outside of school. Just because an activity is not yoga itself, there are many benefits from other activities that let the mind de-stress and focus. Then I came across this article, click here, and it confirmed my beliefs. Get Crafty, Get to the Water, Get Cookin'...and Eating, Get in Gear and Get Groovin' (Maggie Peikon) are all alternatives to yoga. My favorite alternative is biking. It is stress-free and it takes the mind off of whatever it is you are thinking about because it requires full awareness to get your feet pedaling and to look at your surroundings. Please wear P.E. appropriate clothes on the correct day. Thank you! We just wrapped our volleyball unit and what an exciting unit it was. 4th and 5th grade were able to compete in a match together. It was such an exciting game to referee. 5th grade won by only 2 points! Now we are trying Badminton. Before Spring Break starts we will have our first park adventure and will try Irish dancing to celebrate spring.
Please make sure your scholar is wearing gym shoes and has shorts on under the dress or skirt. Thank you :) Let's aim to have some supplies after Spring Break. If each family at school were to donate around $16, we could reach our goal in no time!
