This week in physical education, Mrs. P.'s class started working on a new unit: jump-roping! Not only is jump-roping a fun, great way to keep out hearts healthy, it also helps students improve their coordination and balance. In health class, students began learning about two very important topic that students and teachers alike benefit from discussing: how boys and girls are different and even though some people may look different we are all very similar.
The class continues to learn about Germany while en route to the 2012 summer olympics. On Wednesday students had the opportunity to make a tasty healthy treat in this week's SPOT group. We made a delicious creamy German cucumber salad! <--(Click for recipe). The class located all of the ingredients, prepared the food and even got to taste the salad, some even wanted seconds! 
In music this week the class learned a traditional hand clapping dance. A song was played over the speakers and the students learned the steps so they could dance in unison with their peers.Just a reminder, the trip to the Pittsford Indoor Rowing Club had to be rescheduled. The field trip has been moved to Wednesday November 2nd.
Also, Spooktacular is set for this upcoming Monday, October 31st. The festivities are set from 1 pm to 2 pm that afternoon. If your child is planning on dressing up for halloween please send the costume in with your child and they can put it on before the party.
