New and Popular Winter Extracurricular Activities
W
hen the winter extracurricular activities began on December 1, students were excited to participate in activities that they did not have the chance to enjoy during the fall session. Among the many new activities, students were particularly excited about Creative Games that Principal Bruce Knox taught — so excited that 19 kindergarten to grade 2 students signed up! The new activity, Creative Games, is designed to help students learn to solve problems in creative ways. Mr. Knox provides students with a variety of tools to figure out a way to solve the situation they are placed in. For example, he will give some sticks and tapes for students to create a bridge that will safely transport a toy bus from one side of the river to another side of the river. Other activities that were available again this winter session (and extremely popular) included floor hockey and elementary art. In the elementary floor hockey class, students practiced with hockey sticks and learned how to hit the puck. Elementary art this winter season focused on pottery, whereas students enjoyed drawing and painting in the previous season. Lots of fun activities are available this winter to help students foster creativity and become fit!
