Re-Think Your Drink
This afternoon we invited Crystal Top from Health Services of Lyon County to share with our students about the importance of drinking water, which is the best drink they can choose. She was pleasantly surprised by how many of the children already knew several facts and benefits of staying hydrated. She shared a video called "Potter the Otter: A Tale About Water" as well as demonstrated how much sugar is in pop, orange juice, energy drinks, etc. Her office generously donated a water bottle for each student and she encouraged them to refill it once during the day. The bottles have the time on the hour printed on them to encourage the student's pace for drinking throughout the day. We think this is a great way to help us stay focused and have the brain power we need to keep learning a lot here in 2nd grade! Thanks for the cool water bottles, Health Services of Lyon County and thanks for taking the time out of your busy day to visit us, Nurse Crystal!
