Make Lemonade!

(Big kids on the bottom!)

One of my favorite things about Holy Child are the opportunities for the students to express themselves in several ways. Some may think that by loosing the gym I get upset.......
NOT TRUE! I  use the stage to our advantage and allow our little dragons to safely explore and
 become theatrical on stage and they do NOT disappoint!

                                        

             
               



Another favorite thing about HCA is that we are supported when we need to be flexible! When the big kids don't have a gym and it's first period, we make breakfast! I really enjoyed the time with 6th and 7th Grade Wednesday morning! Parents, thank you for sending in our supplies and good luck feeding these growing children :)

Shoe Tying

Shoe Tying Pointers There is no wrong way to tie a shoe. Make sure you practice often but not too long. Consider getting two different color laces for easier visualization. (or you can use marker) Be sure the shoe is facing away from your child. Practice tightening (pulling) laces from the bottom. Make sure your child has enough lace to tie with. Take laces out of top hole for length. Be patient, give your child time to tie then you can tighten or double knot. Watch all the videos, try them all! See which one works best for your child.

I HOPE YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS !!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was the most exciting work day! Not only is SPEED STACKS an activity that spans the ages it also helps with reading and math. Cups are used from left to right which simulates reading patterns. Both dominant and non-dominant hands are used which means using both brain hemispheres. Exercises fine motor skills and increases Hand Eye Coordination. The list goes on!  Your children all played with their own set of cups to learn patterns then participated in different games and competitions. It was an AWESOME day! Please check out all the pictures and videos. world records: https://www.thewssa.com/records/ 5th and 8th                                                                                        K ...

Stations and..........

Have your children come home and said, "We did stations in Gym today!". Here is a video giving some examples of what some stations look like. Children in Grades N2 through 1st Grade (sometimes 2nd:) use station work to review lessons in class. In the video below we are reviewing lessons from September to present on balance , rolling , tossing , and most recently working on throwing .  Occasionally, students get injured and are not able to participate in P.E. Here are some of the activities I have them work on while on " injured reserve "!
