What's New in the Library!!!

This school year the third grade started a program called the Walking Classroom during their library specials time.  The Walking Classroom is a creative way for students and teachers to get some exercise without sacrificing any classroom time.  Students listen to podcasts while taking a walk along with additional classroom lessons and activities.  Third grade students have already learned about exercise, calories, Jackie Robinson, Native American mounds, and many other lessons that collaborate with classroom teachers.  

The Walking Classroom’s evidence-based nonprofit program’s “Walk, Listen, and Learn” methodology capitalizes on the favorable link between exercise and cognitive function.  Students have greatly enjoyed the program so far.  One student was quoted as saying, "This is better than recess because I can walk and learn at the same time!" 

The Walking Classroom was provided by a generous grant by the Walking Classroom, a program of Alliance for a Healthier Generation, a local donation from the Braun home, and DES/CMS library funds.  The program will be expanded next year to other grade levels.
