3rd - 5th grade students will be partaking in the Let's Go Bicycle Education Program. This program was awarded to the Auburn School District through the Cascade Bicycle Club. Students are encouraged to bring their own helmets from home, although they are welcome to use those that come with the unit (with hair nets). Lessons will take place both in the gym and outside in the coned-off parking lot. Here are some videos to supplement the lessons.
During the first few weeks of school, grades K-2 will learn about recess games. We learn how to "Rock, Paper, Scissor" and problem solve on our own while playing at recess. Activities taught include the following:
Switch, 4-square, tetherball, kickball and variations of these games.
This summer, please be on the lookout for snacks that have the Box Tops logo. By purchasing these foods and scanning your grocery receipt within the Box Tops app, you will earn money for Chinook. While some items only give 10 cents back to our school, oftentimes you can find bonus offers that give more. For example, buy 2 boxes of Nature Valley granola bars (valued at 99 cents each at Grocery Outlet) and receive an extra 50 cents to your school. That's 70 cents donated to Chinook from Box Tops when you only spent $1.98 for 10 delicious granola bars! Remember, a little adds up to a lot!
