I came from Indianapolis, Indiana as a gift to Mrs. R. I love race cars! North Park has many race cars in the hallways because they are moving down the Healthy Highway! I love to play and exercise and eat healthy food! Mrs. Robelee told me that I would get a chance to visit each classroom this year and be a part of North Park Healthy Highway! My friends at North Park are going to help me keep a journal of my adventure! Healthy Hannah and Physical Eddie are joining us this year!

Physical Eddie's Adventure with Mrs. R's and Mrs. S's 5th Grade!
Hi everyone, Physical Eddie here! I was taken care of by Mrs. R's and Mrs. S's 5th grade class. There were many activities I did with the class. I learned how to multiply and divide fractions, figure out area and volume of rectangular shapes, and even got to play Math Jeopardy as they prepared for the BIG TESTS! I was taken to a 5k race where I cheered on Mrs. S and her daughter from the sidelines. During PE I watched the fifth grade class do yoga, and I even gave the Cobra a try. Also, I watched while they did the practice PACER test in Physical Education. I got to be the king when a couple of the girls made a throne for me, King of Fitness! Once I heard the fifth grade talking about all doing the fitness calendar this month. I think the fifth grade will complete the calendars! I helped the fifth grade class celebrate three birthdays. It was really exciting. IBM engineers helped us make contraptions to keep an egg safe; our precious cargo. I think the IBM's brought this project to show what they do everyday, to make life easier, and that we could consider it as a profession. By the way, none of the eggs cracked during the experiment, not even "Jeffrey" (some of us named our egg...). Finally, I helped the fifth grade class pick their states for their research reports. It was really fun to be with the fifth grade team! I LOVE Healthy Highway! I wonder which class I will visit next? Love, Physical Eddie
