Fruit and Veggie Challenge

Last day of the Fruit and Vegetable Challenge today. Whew.  They're ready to be done; two fifth graders said they're never eating fruits and vegetables again after lunch today...

The 5th graders pulled off a win! They had 4.46 as an average while the 3rd graders were at 4.28. The 6th graders lost significantly to the 4th graders. 6th= 4.56, 4th=4.94.  The nurse wanted to give everyone smoothies because they all tried really hard. So we'll get smoothies on Friday.

Tomorrow we're doing Food Fear Factor, where the nurse cooks a bunch of strange vegetables and my students have to try them... Hopefully they'll be brave! Otherwise I'll need to add a little incentive... maybe adding marbles to the jar for however many they eat?  A bunch of my kiddos were jealous of the 7/8th graders; they got to watch The Penguins of Madagascar in class as their marble prize.

Well, gotta keep this short! Ash Wednesday services start at 6:30, so I'd best head over to church.
