JUMP ROPE FOR HEART... COMING SOON!

We are having our Jump Rope for Heart Event on Thursday, February 16.

This is an all day event where the students come to the gym during their specials time and JUMP to raise money for The American Heart Association.

Why should we help?

-To teach the importance of developing heart-healthy habits.
-To teach that being physically active can be fun.
-To show that by raising funds to support research and education, students can help save lives across the country and in their community.

New Year, New Resolutions... in P.E.!

To start up 2012, all of our students started thinking about resolutions. What is a resolution? What does it involve? Do you have to have a plan? How will I reach my resolution?

CCA 4th, 5th, and 6th graders each created their own resolution related to physical activity and health. They wrote these resolutions as well as two "plans" to reach that resolution on a paper shape (heart, football helmet, ball, track shoe, or baseball glove). They handed in their resolutions anonymously and will be working to reach these resolutions. The resolutions will be hung around the gym to remind them of their determination right now.

In June, we will look to see how many resolutions/goals we successfully reached!
