What an amazing event we attended today! Almost 8000 5th graders attended Exercise your Character in Des Moines at Hy-Vee Hall. We were able to hear several famous people talk about the importance of good character and being healthy. The speakers were BJ Armstrog (former NBA player),Winter Vilecki (13 year old marathon runner), Billy Cundiff (NFL kicker), the head football coach for ISU, and the inventors of the Interlude Dance. We did lots of dancing and singing and learning! WOW! They then fed us a healthy lunch and sent us home. To top it all off...the kids were once again AMAZING! They never cease to amaze me.

Mrs. Dickman and I had to attend a meeting this afternoon. We had to leave the rooms at noon and didn't make it back before the end of the day. I am assuming this is what was assigned, but just in case....we'll deal with it tomorrow.
Remember to wear your red shirt for tomorrow's field trip to Des Moines for Exercise your Character. It is an amazing field trip that I am really looking forward to.
Don't bring a lunch. It is provided by HyVee.
I will be out of the district Wednesday and Thursday of this week. I will be attending a behavior conference in Des Moines with several other teachers in the district on Wed. and taking my son on a college visit on Thursday. What a wacky week! I am looking forward to a boring old school week next week :)
