Healthy and Active Living

God's special gift...US!

The children know we need to take care of ourselves and so the learning adventure starts.

We are learning to be aware of healthy practices and our own well being. 

The children planted a salad garden in the classroom and water our growing plants.
We have read stories about healthy eating, discussed healthy food choices, and sorted food.
The children went shopping in the local grocery store advertisements and cut out pictures of healthy food to put in our Learning Logs.

We are learning about the importance of personal hygiene and cleaning our hands.

Check out the clip below and then check out our pictures of us doing the same investigation!

It's fun getting our hands dirty!

The paper towel did not do a good job.  My hands are still dirty.

I need to sing the ABC song and scrub my hands to get them nice and clean.

My hands are good and soapy!

Now my hands look clean!

We are learning ways to keep our bodies healthy by exercising and developing our muscles.

Gianna's mom visited our gym class and helped us learn some great yoga moves.  

Look below for a glimpse into our yoga class.

Special thanks go out to Mrs. Sirizzotti - We had an extraordinary time! 

We learned how to breathe the yoga way.
