5/1/13 PE: 2nd graders checked out their speed to see if they are ready for the GO! St. Louis Healthy Kids Mile. We also biked around the neighborhood a couple of times. Keep up the good work!

Last week, the 2nd graders hosted a “Healthy Plate Lunch.” They have been learning how to place certain foods on a plate to make it, well… healthy and nutritious. The protein choice was a recipe that was spotted by a couple “food detectives”, Sticky Chicken Drum Sticks! The rest of the plate was filled with fruit (strawberries and bananas), veggie (broccoli, carrots, tomatoes) and the beloved carb (whole wheat rolls).
The kiddos invited their parents as well as the first graders to eat and teach all about the healthy way to fill a plate:)
These are not like the nice and tidy ones you see high above in trees; these are the sticky, delicious edible (”eatable”) ones that we made with butter, noodles, marshmallows and EGGS. YUMMY!!
This week in the art studio the first and second grade painted spring scenes with watercolors. -Schwall
Last week, we had a special guest in the PA Suite. Kathy Doerr, president of St. Louis Shakespeare, came to present Bard-In-A-Box, a lovely interactive workshop. Students in grades JK-4 did an acting warm up, put on costumes, and participated in their own play! AK
This Monday we have swimming! Please remember to send your child with a suit, towel, goggles and flippers if they wish!
Homework this week will be a Math time packet that I will give to the kids on Monday and they will bring back to school Friday morning.
A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to both Michael and DJ this week!
On Friday we created Spring Scenes with cream cheese, fruity pebbles and graham crackers!
