Movin' and Munchin' Program

Yesterday students attended an assembly called Movin' and Munchin'. The Movin' and Munchin' program "increases awareness about nutrition choices and the lack of physical activity within our communities in Wisconsin." Necedah's Movin' and Munchin' fun and creative 'strategy' is an encouragement for families of children in grades 3-5 and staff from our school to make healthy choices. Students brought home packets explaining the Movin' and Munchin' program and how students can participate. Students will be racing against Necedah staff to see who can reach the site of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada FIRST! Please take the time to do these activities with your child. Each Monday the slips will be collected and the miles counted for each grade level. Each grade level and staff tokens will be moved on the big playing map in the elementary commons after the miles are counted. Everyone can track the progress. Good luck!
