 A GEO 180 Day :)

Today was another great day. The high temperatures broke another record for the month of March. It sure does not feel like spring but rather mid summer. With the temperature sitting at 25 degrees, it was impossible to sit back in our desks and watch the day pass by. So, naturally we did a Geo 180 and headed outside second period to go play horseshoes at Mac Morison Park. We had a great time being able to learn something new and to be educated about the history of the Horseshoe game specifically about how they were used as weapons in the war. We played for about an hour in the sun then headed back to the school carrying our horseshoes. We then sat back down at our desks to learn more about biodiversity. 
During period four we were in the gym. We learned how to speed skate with the help of some woolly socks and teaching instructions by Ms. A who taught us how to do proper form. This prepped us for our speed skating trip tomorrow :). We then learned about skills that younger age groups may find challenging. Using this knowledge we learned how to incorporate them into a fun activity.  We played soccer-baseball including all of the skills; agility, throwing, catching, balancing, running. etc. After working up a sweat we got changed and headed to the computer lab where we worked on our resumes till the end of the day. All in all, it was a very successful day. 27 DAYS TO COSTA RICA!! GET PUMPED YEYE!!
