A healthy outside starts from the inside. Robert Urich

Hi there. Nothing like a fast flying Monday!

It is Healthy Habits Week at Arrowhead Elementary. During CC Meeting today, we watched a little video about we are what we eat. You can preview it as well down below. Chase wanted me to post it. For homework tonight, kids need to take note of what they eat for dinner and a snack. They then need to draw themselves with the body of what they ate. We did this today in class, so they know what I mean. However, these ones will be for display so they need to be colored and take up the entire space. Please have your child share their's with you. If they do, write EAT in the planner for $10 tomorrow.

The second part of homework for tonight is to find a flower or a plant. We will press these to put into our MT History notebook just as Lewis and Clark did to send back to Jefferson. If you could put them in some wax paper that would be great. Don't have any? No worries! I will have some here for the morning. Flowers work best. Nature, nature, nature.

Tomorrow is our zoo assembly at 2:00. Please feel free to join us. The drawing for the stuffed tigers will happen then.

In math today, we reviewed median, mean, mode and range. I taught them a little song to help them remember it. I have posted it below. If your child can sing it without looking, then write DIDDLE in the planner for another $10. They had it down pretty good today!



Everyone has turned in their permission slips for our field trip on Thursday except Tyler. Both Tyler and Emily still need to return their $7 as well in order to go. If we could do this by Wednesday that would be great! Kids MAY bring electronics to busy themselves on the bus. Cameras are not allowed on the actual trip.

Casasha was our star of the week today. She shared some fun crafts she had done. She knits and she also sews. What a talented young lady! Thanks for sharing with us Casahsa.



Tyler went to a competition for Judo again this past weekend. He took first place again! Way to go Tyler.



I leave you with a  short video of two funny fellows. I told them they should both try out for the next American Idol. Oh my!

Well, that brings us up to speed. Have a fantastic night!
