Hey Wildcats!
You all learned another dance - DYNAMITE! Nice work, Wildcats! I am so proud of how the majority of you stepped up to the challenge and worked through any sort of uneasiness about dancing! The end result is awesome! My next challenge is for you to teach your family the dance :)
Check out some of our third graders get their groove on -
The other excitement of the week was getting to try out climbing the rope. This is a challenge! Most of the Wildcats are still working to increase their muscular strength enough to climb the rope, but a few students from each class were able to reach the top. Tree climbing is a great way to practice for this challenge and build muscular strength. Thanks for checking in!
Have a great Spring Break,
Miss Stone

Run for Fun!
Great job Wildcats!
You all stepped up to the challenge and kept your body moving for the entire Fun Run! That was hard work, but it is really good for us to push our bodies to their limit. I'm guessing some of you woke up a little bit sore the next day - I certainly did!

As we move our way through winter, I always observe a little bit of a dip in our cardiovascular endurance, based on our PACER test scores. If you want to know more about the PACER test, you can check out my previous post titled "PACER - what's that!" Even though the weather doesn't always cooperate, it is still so important to get our bodies the exercise they need every day. How much exercise do we need every day?

Mr. Beasley was just telling me about an activity he did with his family to motivate some movement. He called it the Fro-Yo Challenge - he challenged his girls to run four laps around the track at Linus Pauling, and then he took them to get frozen yogurt. Try it out with your Wildcat! Thanks for checking in!
