Exercise Ernie's Adventure in Mrs. E's Class!

Hi everyone,
     I had a lot of fun in Mrs. E's classroom this past week.  In PE the class jumped rope and we played "Traffic Control" which is a dribbling basketball game.  That was so much fun!  I LOVE Basketball!   My friends use pedometers during PE class and one of my friends asked Mrs. R if I could have my own log card.  She said yes and now I have my very own log card to write down how many steps I move during PE!  The boys and girls work very hard during PE and one of my friends logged 2,441 steps!  I thought it was so nice of him to include me!  Everyone is so friendly here at North Park!
     Tuesday I went with my friends to the Harlem Wizards vs. Hyde Park Bad Apples basketball game at FDR High School.  It was great!  Miss H and Miss V were awesome players!  It was so very exciting!  WOW!  Those Harlem Wizards taught me lots of cool basketball tricks!  Fitness Frankie was there too and he had an amazing adventure also!
     On Wellness Wednesday we had some great snacks!  We ate yogurt, veggie sticks, fresh fruit, whole wheat crackers and barbecue peas!  Yummy, Yummy!
     Mrs. E's class is learning about Colonial Times.  It's very interesting!  We learned that if a student didn't bring in firewood to the classroom to keep everyone warm, he had to sit at the far end of the room.  If he wasn't working very hard he had to sit with a "dunce cap" on his head.  Uh-oh!  I had to do both!  It was all in good fun and I learned a lot about Colonial Times!
     I LOVE Healthy Highway!  I wonder what my next adventure will be?

Love, Exercise Ernie
