6th Cross Country Ski Trip to Sleepy Hallow

6th graders hit the trails on Thursday and Friday at Sleepy Hallow as an end to their cross country skiing unit! Although, many students had only been on skis a couple of times they did an amazing job of fearlessly going on the trails to experience something new! Even though the snow was melting fast they still had a blast cruising around in temperatures close to 60 degrees! 

 

 

Fitness February continued on Friday when SCS hosted the Vernon Tornado Jumprope Team. The team performed for our third, fourth and fifth graders followed by a workshop for Ms. Nile's and Mr. Adam's classes. The team touched on heart health and the benefits of staying drug free while staying active! The connection from student to student was welcomed by our community at Shelburne. We also had a little Mix-It-Up within our 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grade levels playing Healthy Heart earlier this week. The Tornadoes complimented SCS on being one of the best audiences this year!

8th Graders Create a Game

This unit 8th graders participated in a games unit, where they played different games from all four categories. At the end of the unit 8th graders took all the skills, strategics and tactics they learned and created their own games. First, students taught them to their classmates, then modified and perfected their projects so they could teach developmentally appropriate games to the younger students! Great work 8th graders! 

 

Finally we got some snow!!

6th grade students were super excited as they had a chance to FINALLY get to cross country ski on some freshly groomed tracks! I was super impressed by all students eagerness to try a new lifelong activity. Students had a great workout while having fun with friends :) 

 

 

Kindergarten, First and Second Graders are working on SHAPE Standard #2. We are finishing up our basketball unit using our dribbling skills to "travel" around the gym spelling our names and classroom sight words. The sight words were posted on the wall so as to keep their heads up dribbling. To differentiate for memory there were also words on the floor to have better memory of the spelling while looking for letters. Ask your students about how and when they needed to do jumping jacks.

Outdoor Skiing Alternative!

Last Friday felt more like Spring than the middle of January! Sixth Grade students took advantage of the warm January weather and participated in a  geocaching activity as an alternative to cross country skiing. Students had fun learning how to operative GPS compasses and how to navigate to different way points!
