Today was a wonderful day of fitness! Fun! Fundraising! This morning our third graders ran a total of 192 laps. Wow! (6 laps=1 mile)
In thinking about fitness, we came up with a lot of words such as dancing, running, jumping, gymnastics, swimming, walking, stretching, jogging, basketball, biking, hiking, kayaking... This make Jessica think that all of those words are ways to get exercise. "You need a lot of energy to do those things," replied Kendalynn.
Brave and daring Mr. Gualtieri had blue hair today. Mr. Gualtieri and Mr. Woodworth let the entire school try to dunk them with water. Brrrrr. Each student was able to throw a ball at the target. I'm sure you'll hear more stories.
At the end of the day we had the Run Run Assembly. What an exciting end to the day. Our class tied for first place in collecting Fundraising Donations. Wow! Thank you to all that organized, donated, came out to cheer our third graders and volunteer to make this day a success. What an incredible day!
How many miles did our class run? (Work with your family to answer this question and bring in the answer on Monday for a prize-no calculators please. Share how you found the answer). Our class enjoyed the really really fun music. Nevaeh shared, "This helped us run fast because it was really good music." Olivia and Jordan shared that they thought it was fun to do the Macarena dance while they were enjoying snack and cheering on the next group (5th grade).
