“Walk on a Mile in Your Mocs”
We had a fabulous time at MTE today. We walked a mile in honor of our ancestors. The Apache people were runners for life. We spoke about the miles of walking the Apache did to gather food, look for water, and to run to safety. The San Carlos Apache Healthcare Diabetes Team reiterated the importance of endure and physical stamina and spoke about the benefits of staying fit. We had parents join us in the walk. A super fantastic time for parents and kids, a great presentation, tasty snacks, dancing, and singing.

5th grade has been working on writing informative essays and making predictions in ELA. In Math, we are working on comparing and adding decimals. In science, we learned about rockets. We launched rockets and timed how long they were in the air. We had to predict and decide whose rocket designs would stay in the air the longest. The students had an amazing time!!
