Strong Bodies

This whole week the kids have been so excited to push each other around in the laundry baskets, but today they really wanted to test their strength! 

"Pushing kids around is too easy. I want it to be harder."

"Yeah, it needs to be really heavy to make it hard!"

"I am so strong and I want to show everyone."

We looked around the room and noticed the logs sitting next to the bookshelf. 

"We can use those! They are going to be so heavy."

We started loading up the two logs we have in our classroom.

"These will still be too easy. We need more."

We headed to Magnolia to ask for some more logs. Now with 5 logs, they surely thought it would be too heavy to move.

S, L, & M did their best to push the heavy basket across the carpet. 

"This is not that easy."

"Yeah it is really heavy with 5."

"It was easier to push 4 than it was 5."

"We have such strong muscles to push all of these logs!"
"I think we could push even more."

B brought in a book pertaining to bodies so we were able to learn a little bit more about our bodies and all of the great things they do for us. We talked about what it takes to have a strong body and how there are all kinds of exercises we can do in order to make them strong. 

Please take care of those strong bodies over break! Have a great week and see you all when you get back!
