T is for Temperance

Temperance is a big word that means having good self-control.

Temperance is getting enough good things and staying away from not-so-healthy things like sugar, caffeine and sodas. We need to be careful not to overdo anything, especially unhealthy things. Here are some things that many of us have trouble maintaining self-control...

• Not staying up too late.

• Not eating too much, especially things that are unhealthy like sugary foods & drinks and other unhealthy snacks.

• Spending too much time watching TV or playing video games.

Listen to our principal, Mrs. Brown, tell us a little bit more about what Temperance means.
