One in Woman's Day Magazine and the other in the Staunton Newsleader. I am posting the links here, but you'll have to copy and paste. Be sure to read the stories people told about their childhood in the comment section (Newsleader article). They were really interesting. Check them out!

     The kids loved the Health Fair! We traveled from room to room learning about safety, nutrition, exercise, and dental hygiene. They collected all kinds of good stuff in their new Wal-Mart bags too! One of the kids said it best, "Instead of the Health Fair, it should be called the Fun Fair!" Pictures are posted on the picasa site!
     We're in the midst of our health unit now. We are learning fascinating facts about our body systems. So far we have studied bones, muscles, and the heart. We also discussed germs and how to stay healthy. This week we will conclude this unit with the nervous system and digestive system. We'll also review dental health.
