This week was all about team work at Hall-Dale.  We joined together to create an energizing Opening Ceremony.  The kids were so excited to be on the news.

The principal, vice principal, custodians, MTSS team (intervention team), alumni, and specials’ teachers joined us to help us pull off a fantastic first week.  We had 3 former Hall-Dale students come to teach us about ice hockey and heart healthy winter activities.  They showed us stretches they do before they play; demonstrated their skills; and showed us their protective gear.

The students loved learning how to use their stop watches to check their pulses and were thrilled to take them home to show their families.  Their favorite activity was the Snack Pals Heart Walk.  They found hearts shaped patches in the snow, in lichen, and heart shaped rocks.

We were able to get all the students to be able to participate by involving the special education team, the gym teacher, and the admin to organize make up activities for students who missed an activity due to scheduling!
