a lazy bum throughout my summer between third and fourth grade of elementary, my parents decided to sign me up for British soccer camp. Growing up as a tomboy, I played most sports before middle school. I was the girl playing with the boys during recess. I started playing soccer at the age of 5. I partook in YMCA soccer anytime that I could. The first day is always the hardest because Tongue River is such a small school and no one loved soccer as much as I did. Being the only Tongue River…

This was not a big deal to me as a child, but as I grew up later in life I always wanted to be that kid that was known as the “Number one Pick”, the person everyone would fight for first and that was what drove me to play rec football in middle school. In Rec we would be able to play…

School Bells Starting school is a new adventure for every child. Walking into school on the very first day is slightly nerve racking due to the fact school is way different than anything we were used to. I know for me, it was a scary.

To me, grade school was about learning to associate with fellow classmates, finding a friend to grow with, and discovering a special teacher. On the very first…

That being said, in order to begin the process of reversing the trend of childhood obesity, we need to look at the population affected, what we already know, where are the gaps, as well as the possible solutions.

the times during the day when children move or change from one activity to another. These actives could include entering in the classroom, moving to different centers, going to lunch or recess and even going home.
