What a busy week we have in store! We'll start our week with our Speed Minton Tournaments for 1st through 4th graders. Using an advancement technique I learned from friends who played handball in New York City, students will have the opportunity to play in the class "championship" of Speed Minton. In this system winning individuals move up the ladder to the coveted "A" court, which has to be won to be kept. It is an exciting way to allow the students to experience competition without elimination! Ask your child who spent the most time on "A" court in his or her class!
We will also be completing the mile run this week for grades 2 and 4, since we were displaced last week by the District Track meet on our Track! On Thursday, I will be traveling to Naples with 23 of our Varsity Track athletes for the Regional Track meet. Our girls team were District runners-up and we hope to see great success both on the track and in the field on Thursday! Go Chargers!
As for the remainder of the week - ECC will continue to work on balance through the use of stations in the mini-gym. Kindergarteners will be treated to both group cooperative games and individual class activities. Make-ups for the Presidential Fitness Test will also be completed for 3rd and 4th graders.
