Now that we were ready, Franklin's PE teacher, Sharon Foster, explained the game which involved rolling dice, understanding which number was higher, and running and tabulating laps. In just thirty minutes, we were able to run a combined total of EIGHT miles. Not a bad start to the day!
If you haven't yet attended, I highly recommend joining your student for their PE class this week. It was so much fun. When we said goodbye, I commented to my son that he is a really fast runner. His reply was, "I know. I've had more gym than you." Classic!
