How well can you write your name?
This year we got really good at writing our names. But can you write your name with:
- your OTHER hand?
- your toes?
- your mouth?
- another part of your body? (tell us your idea)
- Take a picture of your names and send to Mr. Neufeld.
Daily Physical Activity
180 hops |
Mr. Neufeld's 5-alive Workout (plyometrics)
- 5 hops forwards and back
- 5 hops side to side
- 5 hops in a square
- 5 180 hops
- 5 one-legged hops
- 5 ballistic push-ups
- Do you remember all the activities we did outside, with no special equipment, no electricity, and no cost?
- For example:
- the games we played (Cougar in the cupboard, Eagle Eye)
- the art we created with found items
- the patterns we created with found items
- the scavenger hunts we did (looking for all the colours of the rainbow, looking for diversity, looking for signs of animals, looking for decomposers...)
- the things we built (Fort K, the Pleeting Mace...)
- the sticks that were not sticks (my stick was a fishing rod, Alek's stick was a guitar...)
- the rocks that became our solid friends
- the Wombat Stew we created
- the safety tips we discussed (if you get lost, meet a bear..)
- Pick your top 3 and teach them to someone you know.
- Most important: remember how good we always felt when we were in the forest. How satisfying it was to just go for a walk in the trees and talk about what we found. At the end of our little adventures I would ask, "How do you feel?" and the answer was usually, "I feel great!"
- This summer, this list may be useful.
Have a safe and healthy summer! We will see you around the village! Or we will see you in September! I really enjoyed being your Kindergarten teacher. I look forward to buddy reading with you in grade 1.
