The week before Thanksgiving break, Ms. Kelly's 8th grade Lifetime Fitness class participated in a Community and Service Learning project.
A youth group called "Armonia," made up of 20 5-12 year old boys and girls, visited ASF's campus to learn some new games taught by the 8th graders. Ms. Zika, the Head Community and Service, arranged for the visit with Armonia. They will be visiting ASF once a month to attend different classes in the middle school.
The 8th grade Lifetime Fitness class was the first class to do this project and did a fantastic job with it. They played age and developmentally appropriate games with them to encourage teamwork and problem solving. Seeing the students interact with the students was amazing because they really got along and had a great time. The 8th graders reflected on the experience after the group left and it was unanimously decided that it was a positive experience that they would love to do again. Thanks to Ms. Zika for organ
izing the experience, thanks to the 8th grade class for their exceptional work and thanks to Mr. Chenier for snapping some great photos!
