What are we doing in PE? Right now the 5th-8th graders are playing volleyball. The rest of us are playing
soccer inside and out. We will start fitness testing in the next two weeks. All 4th - 8th grade will be running
the mile and some already have. We have a 6:01 turned in already by a 6th grader. Five 6th graders under 7 minutes
way to go.

The Health Corner
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
And how about Garlic, it is our food of the week. Garlic is one of the world's oldest vegetables with extraordinary
taste and health beneficial characteristics. It originates from Asia, and its 2000 to 5000-year long use has been recognized
in Egypt, China, and Babylon. Today, wild garlic crop grows in areas form India, China, Egypt, to Ukraine.

Sportsmanship is very important when you are playing a game. We look for students who can
handle the winning and losing in a proper manner. The badminton tournament really gives the students a chance to demonstrate
the right way to handle the issues that come up during a game/match. How do you handle winning and losing? Just
remember that what you do and say effects everyone around you. The last thing to think about is your body language.
Words can hurt, but most of us forget how imprortant your body language is. So remember to keep positive with your words,
actions, and body language.
Thursday September 17 is the Mayors Fun Run for all 4th graders. We will be out of the building most of the day,
spending the afternoon at Byrnes Tennis Center. Come out and watch us run the mile. See you then.
