We are learning all about exercise and how to keep our bodies healthy with our exercise study.

Our class gym is open, we’ve had several special visitors, made and tried many different foods and it’s been all around fun learning this uni!

SpecialVisitor

We had Megan Lithem (Liam's mom) visit our class this week and help us answer our focus question. Megan is a clinical dietitian that helps patients address their health and lifestyle needs and goals. She helped pre k learn about the 5 food groups by playing sensory and matching games as well as bringing hummus and veggies for us to try out. We had so much fun and learned a lot about the things our bodies need to stay healthy! Thank Megan!

Smoothies & Energy Balls

This week we discussed what we can do to take care of our bodies and what our bodies need to move and exercise. We talked about how our bodies are like batteries, and we need to keep them "charged" or full of good things to have the energy to play and learn.

We made energy balls, smoothies, and guacamole. I asked them all to at least try one bite of everything, and if they didn't like it, they didn't have to eat it. I was pleasantly surprised by how many of them enjoyed eating everything.
