Fitness Frankie's Week in Miss V's Class!

Hi everyone,

I had a terrific week in Miss V's class! My friends fed me healthy snacks for Wellness Wednesday! We ate apples, carrots, vitamin C, olives, and oranges. They gave us energy! I exercised with my friends on Fitness Friday! We jumped rope in PE. We also jumped over some very silly looking sharks! I wasn't even afraid! I helped build at recess. I also did jumping jacks! I "persevered"! My friends told me that perseverance means working hard even when something is hard to do! I spent the 100th day of school in Miss V's class! My friends celebrated the 100th day by coloring in pictures of 100 bears with an "F" on each bear's stomach. They were coloring pictures of ME! They made a big poster of all of the coloring and gave it to Mrs. R today! She was so happy she hung it up on the wall outside of the gymnasium so everyone can see it! Of course, when you have 100 Fitness Frankies, what's not to be happy about! I am spending this week in Mrs. Br's class! They were very excited to welcome me into their classroom this morning! I felt like a rock star! I LOVE Healthy Highway! Love, Fitness Frankie

Fitness Frankie's Week in Ms. B's Class!

Hi everyone,

I spent the week in Ms. B's fifth grade! My friends fed me healthy snacks for Wellness Wednesday! We ate clementines, apples, fruit cups, yogurt, cucumbers, and a granola bar! We were not in school on Fitness Friday :-( , so instead I got to snowshoe with my friends outside by the third grade wing during PE class! It was so much fun! I had never been snowshoeing before! It was pretty cold outside, but my friends wrapped me in a scarf to keep me warm! You can see more pictures of my friends at North Park snowshoeing by visiting their PE website! Everyone is so nice to me! This week I am being taken care of by Miss V's class. I LOVE Healthy Highway! Love, Fitness Frankie

Fitness Frankie's Week in Mrs. L's Class!

Hi everyone,
I had a wonderful time in Mrs. L's class! They took such good care of me! I went to PE every day and got to finish gymnastics and ride a scooter again! I can't believe how much fun I am having here! My friends fed me healthy snacks for Wellness Wednesday. We ate a very healthy birthday snack that was sent in by Alyssa - fresh fruit flowers on picks. I made the class laugh when I shared this joke, "What does a tiny teddy bear say after snack? I'm stuffed!" I'm pretty funny for a bear, aren't I?
I exercised with my friends on Fitness Friday! We listened to a CD that has exercise songs for kids. We danced to "Thumbs Up!" and "Macarena Math"! When it was done, I complimented all of the kids in room five. I said, "Boy! You kids can boogie!" I LOVE Healthy Highway! I am spending this week in Ms. B's class! Love, Fitness Frankie

A Book about ME!

Hi everyone,

Remember I told you that some of my friends made a book about me? Well, it's all done and it was given to Mrs. R. this week! It's a great book about my friends and what we did together to exercise and eat healthy! My friends drew pictures of me with them during Fitness Friday and Wellness Wednesday! They are very good artists! They wrote about what we did. Here are a few of the sentences:

"Fitness Frankie danced with me."

"Fitness Frankie ate with me and my friends."

"Fitness Frankie danced in circles."

"Fitness Frankie and I ate my healthy snacks."

"Fitness Frankie played with me."

"Fitness Frankie ate my baked chips."

"Fitness Frankie drank water and ate my banana."

Now I have two books and my journal in my backpack to carry to the next class! It's a good thing that my backpack is big and I am little! I LOVE Healthy Highway! Love, Fitness Frankie
