This week we've been heading up to the track to walk/jog/skip and run a lap around the track. This is something we'll be doing a few times each week. My goal is for us to work up to doing two laps each day and if that goes well, maybe more. I am hoping that by heading to the track before recesses on Tuttle Town we'll have the opportunity to really get the movement our bodies crave. So far the kids have been enjoying this time up at the track so I am hopeful to continue it until the snow comes!
Unfortunately sometimes indoor recess is unavoidable! When days like this happen and there is just too much rain to head outside for fresh air we have a choice for our morning recess. The kids are able to choose using play-doh at their table or follow along with a Cosmic Kids Yoga to get their body moving. Each child can make the choice for themselves. This morning the yoga story was called Ruby Broom and the kids enjoyed the movement.
During lunch recess on rainy days the kids have choice time table top choices to choose from. Activities are things like Legos, drawing, Magna-tiles, and puzzles. We are always looking forward to dry days in kindergarten...sunny days are a bonus!!
