Teresa, a Grade 1 teacher at Corpus Christi School in Richmond Hill, won a Fitbit Wireless Activity Tracker for telling us how she embraces winter in her classroom when it’s too cold to send students outside. Here is her submission. “For indoor recess we usually read, write or draw at our desks, but with the two weeks spent indoors during the very cold weather, we all had to get creative for the health and sanity of all of us. I teach Grade 1 and as we are working on structures in science, we spend our recesses making structures out of recycled materials and from store-bought building materials that I have in the class. As for DPA, we are doing dance right now, so I turn on the dance music and/or videos and we dance our fidgets out.
Poem for dance:
Dancing, dancing
It's the best way to go
When your body needs to move
We are in the know
Dancing, dancing
It's the best way to go
When DPA time comes
We have to show
What we can do
With our dancing shoes.” |
