Dear Parents:
Mindful actions are what we strive for at KTS, we attempt to live the HEART values each day. Responsibility is important for grade four, because we are role models for other students. Mindfulness and paying attention on purpose is something we believe and practice at KTS daily. Here is a web where everyone gave their thoughts on what mindfulness means to them.
Did you know that when your heart is beating, your brain is happy? Today we had a special visit from the school Occupational Therapist Mr. V. We talked about the importance of the brain and heart connections for getting ready to learn and to sharpen our focus. We learned 4 new brain blast body movement exercises. Ask your child to share one with you. You'll be amazed at how quickly your heart rate goes up. Here a short video of the students in action.
In Science we continued today to design and test our simple machines by joining pieces together in our Rube Goldberg circuits. The room was buzzing with creativity, critical thinking and collaboration.
