Being Healthy

The fifth grade has been working to be healthy and to figure out ways to to be healthy. Being healthy is important and not that hard. While we're young we need to treat our bodies with good food for you and lots of exercise.

The Physical Activities Guidelines by the CDC  say that all kids should get at least 60 minutes of exercise a day. It seems like its a lot, but if you do 15 minutes of recess, another 15 minutes walking home from school, then, 30 min playing with your friend, you just did your 60 minutes!!! No stress!

In the fifth grade, Mrs.Thompson started the healthy kids club! It is every Wednesday during lunch. We talk about ways to be healthy, what you can eat to be healthy, and other fun healthy stuff.

What are ways you like to be healthy?

  1. I like to visit the farmer's market and to get fresh veggies grown locally! I also like meeting the people who grow the food.
