GYM DANDIES- January 2008

Mr. Hauck

Mrs. Robbins

Happy New Year!  We want to remind everyone to remember that although boot season is most certainly upon us, sneakers still need to be thrown into backpacks for physical education class.  Layering clothes is also important since temperatures tend to change even between the upper and lower gymnasiums! 

With our winter weather comes our outdoor units such as sledding, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.  All classes, grades K – 5 will sled when possible.  Grades 3 – 5 will snowshoe and grades 4 & 5 (as well as the multi-age) will cross-country ski.  We will need all students to dress appropriately for these units.  Everyone will need a proper coat, snow pants (or extra dry pants), boots, hats and mittens.  We will give at least a day’s notice prior to beginning these units.  However, there may be days when we are unable to go outside due to low temperatures and blowing snow.
