Since being crown Miss Coon Rapids last February I have promised my mother’s 3rd grade classroom that I would come in and visit them as a princess. Today I spent some of my afternoon finally following through with my promise. I started my visit by talking about the Miss America Organization. Then I taught them all about Dance this Weigh and how we can make simple, fun changes in our lives to stay healthy. We shared with each other the ways we already stay active outside of school and also discussed ways we can keep active during the summer. After our great discussion we got up and moving! One teaching quality my mom possesses that I love is her commitment to keeping her students physically active in her classroom. Her class was excited to share with me what they do on a daily basis in the classroom. We were able to youtube Just Dance dances from the Wii game and dance to them as a class! I had such a marvelous time and I can hardly wait for my next visit.
Until next time,
Samantha Phillippi
