“I really like it when you come to our class with Annie and teach us about bones and how to keep them healthy,” announced a first grader at Lewistown Elementary.
After a story and lesson, the classes end with a song cadence that includes motions. One student in Canton loves OrganWise Guys so much that he made up his own song about how much he loves low-fat foods.
