WACky Walkers Update

The WACky Walkers walking program has hit a bump in the road. The program cannot continue as scheduled because so many fifth grade students have not returned their pedometers. If you fifth grader lost or damaged the pedometer, please send $8.00 in cash to Mrs. Cloud for replacements. This is a worthwhile physical education project that works with our CATCH program to encourage healthy lifestyles among all our students.

All fifth grade students are walking their way to fun and fitness during the month of November. They are the first group to use our new pedometers to measure the distance walked. Parents are encouraged to walk with their children. Students record their steps each week on walking charts and turn them into the PE teachers. How many steps will the fifth grade walk?
