What exciting P.E. classes this week… we got to learn how to CURL!
The game of curling was invented in Scotland, and they used REAL ROCKS… hmmm… I wonder if those rocks eventually turned into SOIL (ha!ha! there’s our Soil Science theme this term!).
Curling is usually done on ice, but with “Rocks and Rings” http://rocksandrings.com/ we were able to curl IN THE GYM! How fun is that!
We learned about SWEEPING… HURRY HARD and WHOA! We learned about BUTTONS, and RINGS for POINTS. You have to slide the ROCK by its HANDLE, and be on one or both KNEES.
