One more week of
jumping rope. The kids will have the opportunity to work with short ropes
and long ropes. Each student will be assessed on jumping a certain number
of times in a row based on their grade level. After jump rope, 3rd-8th
graders will be spending several weeks playing volleyball. The younger
students will be working on various motor skills, like jumping and
leaping. They will also be practicing underhand and overhand skills.

The 6th grade Environmental Classroom students will be going
to the AuSable Environmental Institute in the north woods of Michigan near
Kalkaska. They are leaving Wednesday
morning and returning Friday afternoon.
Please keep the students, parents, and teachers in your prayers as they
learn more about God’s wonderful world from the woods!!!
Did You Know ??????
That the sixth grade Environmental Classroom has a
weather station that tells the temperature, wind speed, wind chill, barometric
pressure, and many more things that are happening outside? The weather station
will give us up-to-the-minute weather information so the kids won’t have to go
outside for recess when the wind chill is below zero. Be sure to watch for the weather information
displayed on Mr. Dave’s blog each day.
Thanks, Mr. VerMerris, and the rest of the EC students!!!!!!
